Implemetation Overview

[Neodrache]

I am currently an LPN student learning care plans (PITA), and I am writing my care plan in regards to Influenza as my first "Fake" plan. I am stuck on how to narrow down my implementations as far as what actions to perform for each subcategory of my NANDA Diagnosis. Listed below is how our instructors want us to list our care plan. Keep in mind, we are to only have 1 "Planning & Evaluation" but list as many Assessment subcategories as possible with 1 implementation and rationale for each action.

WHAT I HAVE NOW:

Assessment:

Imbalanced Body Temperature

r/t Fever AEB Body Temp 101.8

taken on admission.

sub1 - V.S. Temp: 101.8, P: 103, R: 32, B/P: 126/82, O2: 98%, P.S. 2-10

sub2 - Dieting (nutrition)

sub3 - Medication

sub4 - excessive sweating

sub5 - sore throat

sub6 - Cough (productive)

sub7 - headaches

sub8 - lab work

sub9 - inappropriate clothing

sub10 - inactivity (ADL)

sub11 - Lung sounds

sub12 - Environment

sub13 - age&weight

sub14 - impaired judgment

sub15 - alcohol use

sub16 - recent exposure to communicable disease without known immunity

sub17 - abnormal respiratory rate

sub18 - abnormal heart rate/rhythm

sub19 - mental status

*SIGH*

ok, now I need to draw implementations for each subcategory. My list starts with sub1:

sub1 - chk v.s. q hr until v.s. have stabilized within a normal range then q 4 hr for duration of day.

sub2 - ?

sub3 - ?

and so on and so on..

thanks for any help.. I am having a rough time in LPN class being a Male Nurse let alone understanding whats going on here.

BTW, I thought being a straight guy in a class of 34 woman would be easy.. pffff.. since day 1, nothing but DDRRRAAAAMMMAAA.. Dear God I couldn't imagine how woman even get along in life vs. a classroom.. GEEsus people. We could start our own reality show.... on lifetime... hahahahah~!!

anyway, I look forward to positive criticism. :)
