Hello, If anybody can give me a few suggestions, I would appreciate it. I have a care plan due, and I have to come up with 3-5 nursing diagnosis based on my patients problem list. I really struggle with this. I have struggled with care plans from ...

Actually, his assessment is here: patient presentation.pptx

Thank you. Yes, I don't know what I was thinking. Apparently I was not. I know it is an infection, as I have it in my presentation. It is those little things that I overlook, that makes me furious with myself. I took out the risk, which then mak...

Yes indeed, it was very helpful. Thank you so much. I am finding that my problem with this patient is so many problems, that I could write several DX on each problem. Then I get myself into trouble. Maslows hierarchy is very beneficial, thank y...

Ok, I have taken what you said, and I have written four DX. I think I have them prioritized correctly. Can you critique? I know you said that I should address the patients pain so I am thinking that should be top on the list, after infection. I wa...

Thank you so very much, for your input. It really helps me to start my thinking process, when I have things thrown out there. We needed 3-5 nursing dx. Now, I have come up with several more.. this will be a very good thinking process for me. Thank...

Thank you very much. This is really making me think. Blue, he does have serious renal issues, but as MattNurse stated, he is apparently in denial as it has been addressed in his chart over and over and throughout the years. He is in a VA facility...

Thank you Blue...looking it up now.

Ok, I am thinking, because his admitting DX was cellulitis and this is giving pain, this must be addressed first. So, I have come up with: Ineffective tissue perfusion r/t edema aeb redness, blisters and pitting edema. I am thinking that he has a ...

Please help me. I have successfully done my required three care plans for the quarter clinicals. However, we now have to do a family care plan with four nursing diagnosis. I am coming up blank. I just need some suggestions. My baby was ve...

Sorry for the repeat. I put this in the wrong place earlier. Please help me. I have successfully done my required three care plans for the quarter clinicals. However, we now have to do a family care plan with four nursing diagnosis. I am coming up...

Wow, not sure if that was meant to be rude or not. Hard to read tone. I do have a diagnosis book, but I am having trouble relating it to the entire family. I have to include, mom, dad and baby and any other family members into the diagnosis. Tha...

Well, it is very hard. If you have a good support system and you are willing to make sacrifices and you want this more than anything, you can do it. I will warn though, it will take sacrifices. Your life as you know it will end. Family time will...

Hello, I am required to do three (3) care plans in order to pass clinical. I just want to throw out there, that I am in OB and peds. this quarter, and I know I have found my niche. Not pediatrics, I hate pediatrics, but I adore Ob. Anyway, my a...

Thank you!! I will make that correction. I really appreciate your input.

corrections have been made. does this look better? diagnosis 1: risk for imbalanced nutrition r/t poor feeding behaviors aeb newborns inability to properly latch. diagnosis 2: risk for infection r/t circumcision. diagnosis 3: risk for respiratory ...

Yes, I can see why that would be much more important. I also have to give 3 interventions for each goal, so I did not complete my assignment. Thank you for your advice. I really appreciate it.

Hello, I have just started OB. We are to write a teaching care plan that included the entire family. This is a made up family. My mom and dad are both 19 years old and this is the first baby. My mommy had a c- section, my baby was circumcised. ...

Thank you very much. I came up with this one, but it is sooooooooo long. I think I will use yours, if it is ok. Ineffective health maintenance r/t knowledge deficit regarding breast milk expression and storage AEB mothers statement " I don't k...

That makes perfect sense. Thank you so much. I will let the rest of the class know there was a typo, as we are all losing our minds.

The antihistamine diphenhydramine (Benadryl) has been prescribed for a child weighing 35 pounds. The bottle label reads 5gm/1m. How many mL should be prepared if the prescriber orders 1.25 mg/kg po? Can somebody please help me to figure this out? ...

I am not sure if it is a typo. It was on a math sheet that we were supposed to complete, and it is driving me nuts.

How do I document a removal of a catheter removal. I know I need to include that the tip was visually intact. Do I just start with saying that per the physicians order the cath was removed on this date at this time. Patient tolerated procedure w...

Thank you very much!!

lol... I don't think that would be acceptable to my instructor.
