    The nursing care plan is for a patient with a fractured right hip. The patient has limited mobility, range of motion, muscle strength, and coordination due to the injury. The goal is for the patient to understand their treatment plan, maintain hip strength and mobility, avoid complications, and use assistive devices within 3 days. Interventions include breathing exercises, participation in self-care, adequate fluids, mobility assistance, rest periods, and consulting physical therapy. The rationale is to reduce stress, promote independence, prevent fatigue and pressure ulcers, and develop an exercise plan.

    Nursing Care Plan for Hip Fracture

    Assessment Subjective: hindi ako makagalaw ng maayos dahil sa nabali kong buto sa hips Objective: -weakness -range of motion limitations -limited muscle strength or control Impaired coordination -postural instability

    Diagnosis Impaired physical mobility, related to fractured right hip & trauma as evidenced by range of motion limitations, limited muscle strength or control, and impaired coordination.

    Rationale Limitation in independent, purposeful physical movement of the body or of one or more extremities

    Goal & Objectives After 3 days of nursing intervention, the patient: -will verbalize understanding of situation and individual treatment regimen and safety measures - will maintain or increase strength and endurance of right hip -will not develop complications of immobility -will demonstrate use of adaptive device(s) to increase mobility.

    Interventions Independent: - encourage deep breathing and relaxation techniques -encourage participation in self-care -encourage adequate intake of fluid Dependent: - assist in use of side rails, overhead trapeze -demonstrate use of mobility devices -schedule activities with adequate rest periods during the day -support affected hip using pillows, etc. Collaborative: - Consult with physical therapist, as indicated

    Rationale Independent: - leads to a reduction in stress levels and helps divert attention from pain -enhances selfconcept and sense of independence -promotes well being and maximizes energy production Dependent: -for position changes/transfers -promotes independence and enhances safety -to reduce fatigue -to maintain position of function and reduce risk of pressure ulcers. Collaborative: -to develop individual exercise/mobility program and identify appropriate mobility devices

    Evaluation After 3 days of nursing intervention, the patient: -has verbalized understanding of situation and individual treatment regimen and safety measures - has maintained or increased strength and endurance of right hip -has not developed complications of immobility -has demonstrated use of adaptive device(s) to increase mobility.
