opps! looks like i got objective and subjective all mixed up. thanks. that's a lot of help since you'll be leaving for work in 2 mins. i'm still a bit lost. so what exactly is a nursing care plan? is this considered as a nursing care plan? if i'm asked toderive a nursing care plan for the patient's breathlessness & explain the rationale with chosen interventions, is this the right way? intervention: 1. explain to patient the need for administration of oxygen and emphasize the safety measures 2. assist patient to a sitting position 3. hold the mask close to the patient’s face for a few seconds before applying 4. constant monitoring of oxygen saturation 5. constant monitoring of equipment rationale: 1. to prevent fire hazards as oxygen supports combustion 2. to facilitate efficient respiration 3. to allow the patient to feel the flow of oxygen, thereby allaying his anxiety 4. oxygen saturation may decrease which may lead to unconsciousness 5. patient might reduce or increase saturation level which may lead to hypoxia or oxygen toxicity also, is possible nursing diagnosis the same as potential nursing problems? because two of what you listed, i wrote it under potential nursing problems. again, thanks a lot for your help. :)
