Thread moved for best response.

Your school gave you no format to follow?

Tell me about your patient

My School did give me a format but it is very basic and I thought that it should contain more but I could be wrong.

Demographic

Psychosocial Hx: role in fam, support system, length in facility, future plan and goals.

Physical asses: head to toe asses, 3 problems or potential problem, at leat 2 interventions for each problem

Functional asses:

Spiritual asses:

Nutritional asses:

Erikson developmental stage:

My pt is a 64 y/o female with a Hx of DM, Cirrhosis of the live(non alcohol), Ascites, CKD, Obesity depression, esophageal varices along with some other disorders. She is divorced, 3 children who all passed away. She is also retired. She is in a long term care facility for a little over a year but her goal is to get better and move into an assisted living facility. She is a Protestant who feels that God can heal her. She was also on a transplant list for a liver but was taken off 2 months ago for noncompliance.
