Purpose To build the final clinical data models regarding the nursing focuses “Delusion” and “Hallucination” with Meleis transitions theory as the theoretical reference model. Design and Methods A qualitative descriptive design was adopted, using two focus groups. Findings The clinical data models obtained by this study recognize a perspective centered on the client's transition, which emphasizes the role of nursing in relation to a client suffering from delusion and hallucination. Implications for Nursing Practice These clinical data models may contribute towards improving nursing clinical decision‐making and nursing care quality regarding these areas.
