Thank you so much mattmrn2013. It definately takes me hours to do my NANDA. It does have to be on comfort. So what I wrote was "Readiness for enhanced comfort related to the dying process as evidenced by low tolerance for activity, nursing care and difficulty breathing." I spoke to my instructor last night and she approved. So here goes nothing. Thanks for the tips. I do have a Nanda book but its the wording that get me. But I will buy a care plan book and maybe that will help. Thanks again.

I am in my first semester of nursing school and I have to write a Nanda Statement for my patient who is 86 and has been given only 1 month to live. He has a bladder tumor, Hydronephrosis. He is currently on morphine. He's extremely fatigued, temp is normal, and doesn't complain of any pain. My clinical instructor suggested I write my nanda on comfort. So I have been sitting here for hours trying to figure what would be appropriate. This is what I came up with, but I know it's terrible. I've never had to write a nanda statement so this is very new. "Readiness for enhanced comfort related to Hydronephrosis as evidence by hematuria and pain in flank." Any suggestions anyone might have would be extremely appreciated. Thank you
