Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Measurable goals are specific, with numeric parameters or other concrete methods of judging whether the goal was met. When writing a goal statement with a patient, the nurse needs to clearly identify how achievement of the goal will be evaluated. When terms such as acceptable or normal are used in a goal statement, goal attainment is difficult to judge because they are not measurable terms, unless they refer to laboratory values or diagnostic test findings.
