Please Help
I have a case study and i a question says how would i plan, prioritise, and implement nursing interventions for this scenario!

"Melissa, 16 says her father has always criticised her and never gives her any praise. She feels like a loner at school but admits she often picks fights with other students and gets angry if anyone hassles her. She has a reputation for being ‘Strange’ and likes to argue the point with just about anybody in a position of authority. She says she likes to look and act ‘different’. She also says “ I’ve started getting a razor and cutting into my arm. I ring up my friend and we talk about doing it. She does it too. We talk about how to do it. I know I can control it though..........."

Im confused tho because i thought nursing implications were made to stop the effects from the signs and symptoms! What interventions would i put in place for Melissa and how would i plan and prioritise this?

I have an oral presentation due tomorrow and i dont understand

Any help would be great

Thanks
Rachiee

Sorry I didn't see this sooner. Not sure I have answers but how did it go? I really did not understand your question, I think.
