Help from anyone would be great. I'm a first year nursing student and my second week of clinicals was last week. We need to do a plan of care on our patient and when I was going over my clinical prep tool to fill in the care plan I couldn't find where I wrote the assessment-objective data for this patient. Would it be his v/s taken while in the e.r.? I know the subjective data is what the patient states is wrong " I almost passed out a couple of times today and I'm not feeling well". his current medical condition was near snycope and worsened orthopnea.

His objective data would be his vital signs, his dx, anything YOU or the other medical personal saw, heard, touched, etc. His vitals in the ER would be objective data..yes.
