help with my care plan.....

Hello, I have been working on a careplan for my pt and would like to know if I am on the right track with it...my patient...

Has a primary diagnoses of Parkinson's Disease with co-morbidities of cervical disc disease, dementia, left renal artery stenosis, hypertension, hiatel hernia, abdominal aortic aneurysm and benign prostatic hypertrophy.

For my nursing diagnoses I have impaired physical mobility, impaired skin integrity, activity intolerance, risk for falls, self-care deficit/bathing, and impaired memory.

My primary attention is going to be focused on impaired physical mobility.

Does it seem like these diagnoses are corresponding to my patient? Any help is appreciated! Thanks!

diagnosing for nursing problems is based upon the signs and symptoms that the patient has. the medical diagnoses do not necessarily have an important relationship to what the patient's nursing problems might be. diagnosing is the result of logical problem determination. you must systematically break down information you obtain from the patient's medical history, physical examination, and laboratory tests and reassemble it into patterns that fit well-defined groupings of symptoms that describe nursing diagnoses. you use your knowledge of the person's diseases and their treatment, the nursing process and a nursing diagnosis reference to help you. since you haven't supplied anything about the patient's response to their illness, there's no way to verify that impaired physical mobility, impaired skin integrity, activity intolerance, self-care deficit/bathing, impaired memory and being at a risk for falls are this patient's nursing problems.
