[Aamaa]

Hello everyone,

I need some help with any creative ideas for careplan presentation about cellulitis.We have already prepared power points but visual aids can be great .Any suggestions will be really helpful.

Thanks

Yep, I do!

Use nursing diagnosis and plan of care, not just medical diagnosis and plan of care.

"Cellulitis" is not a nursing diagnosis. What might you assess in a patient with cellulitis that leads you to some nursing diagnoses?

I keep seeing this type of post about medical diagnosis and nursing diagnosis. I think you are misinterpreting what the students are saying.

Our care plans or care maps have a central area with the medical diagnosis, pmh and age sex of patient. From there, nursing diagnosis' s are connected to that area or box. Then data and interventions are connected to nursing diagnosis. This is basic for care mapping. I may be wrong for other programs..but thats how we were taught. I can upload one if a visual is needed if you are curious

A plan of care is not the same thing as a care map. "Nursing plan of care" has a very specific meaning, and they are not interchangeable. My advice, and I am sorry I expressed it poorly, is to plan your presentation about nursing care for nursing diagnoses you might see with a patient with cellulitis. Sure, have some visual aids about the physiology - you have to know that before you can plan nursing care anyway.

The easiest way to get great visual aids for just about anything on the planet is to Google for them-- in the home Google screen, click in "Images." If you want an illustration for, say, Unna boot (used for venous disease and chronic venous ulcers), there you go. Cellulitis? Lots of 'em. Filler pictures with, say, IV antibiotics running? Check. Give it any noun or verb you can think of, and you've got illustrations. I suggest finding those nouns and verbs in nursing plans of care you might derive for a person with cellulitis, is all. Thanks for the opportunity to clarify.
