Formulating action plans (implementation intentions):
1. Choose a specific situation (i.e. wound care) and
describe how you go about this task.
2. During this task:

bandages and after you have cleared everything up.
(b) Where will you do this?
In the patient room.
(c) How will you do it?
I always use alcohol-based hand rub, I don’t like to
wash my hands with soap and water.

Formulated action plan:
e Enter patient room e use alcohol e gloves on e remove
bandages e gloves off e clean gloves on e new
bandages e gloves off e alcohol.
e I will pay extra attention to making sure that I have
everything I need before I put on my gloves, so that I
don’t have to leave the patient after I have already
touched the wound.
