Chess is a sport of thinking dating back to ancient times. In this sport, the players plan and apply the move that we can define as the most correct or strongest in response to the opponent's move and aims to win the game by evaluating the result of each move. Due to the nature of chess, player constantly solve problems during match. They look for answers to questions like below, and respond with agility What's wrong? How can I solve it? What should I do? How can I do the fastest checkmate? Just like a chess player, also nurses use similar steps in patient care. This process, which forms the basis of professional nursing care, is defined as the "The Nursing Process."
