I am a fairly new home health nurse and I have a patient with Huntingtons. I am trying to think of interventions that justify nursing need. The family is knowledgeable about the disease in general and about meds. I'm afraid she knows more than I do about the disease. Does anybody have any ideas on what I can educated them about? Not doing wound care or anything hands on so it looks like education it is.
thank you for your assistance.
