I couldn't agree more.

This is so completely vague and universally applicable that it is nonsensical.


Whatever that means.

If you have a patient that becomes dizzy and light-headed sitting on the bedside and you have orders to ambulate them, you put them back to bed and call the MD to find out what other measures need to be done which might include just sitting them at the bedside for a few minutes, sitting in a chair, etc..

Trauma,

Can you recomend a book for a young nurse to-be (me!) about care paths? I can read I in my spare time.

This would be a good one if you were taking care of psychic with a brain injury or something

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I was under the impression that that dx was related to t-touch (i.e. legitimizing t-touch as a nursing "tool")?

therapeutic touch

And yes, I've been telling all my classmates since day 1 of the program that I was going to list that as my primary dx on all care plans, and have yet to actually do it (chicken!)...

Can you imagine the kinds of interventions this might lead to???

Honestly, it's stuff like this that makes us look like doofuses (doofi?) to the rest of the medical community.

Weird thing is, it probably wouldn't be the first time someone did that.

I've been teaching now for almost 5 years and in all that time, not even one student has attempted this diagnosis for his or her careplan I don't know how I'd respond if someone actually were to do so. How would one grade or evaluate such a diagnosis????
