Based on patient's age and diagnosis and family history, what would be the positive
and negative findings for the 3 generations list above? (An example of this is
attached below for guidance)
And lastly, what would be the 3 priority client education needs for the patient from
highest to lowest?
This is what I said below but I did not answer it correctly.
Problem 1: Pain
Goal: Verbalizes/displays adequate comfort level or baseline level.
Interventions: encourage client to monitor pain and request assistance. Assess pain using
appropriate pain scale. Administer analgesics based on type and severity of pain and
evaluate response. Implement non-pharmacological measures as appropriate and evaluate
response. Consider cultural and social influences on pain and pain management. Notify
provider if interventions unsuccessful or client reports new pain.
Problem 2: Infection
Goal: Absence of infection during hospitalizations.
Interventions: Instruct and encourage patient and family to use good hand hygiene
technique. Assess and monitor for signs and symptoms of infection. Monitor all insertion
sites.
Problem 3: Cardiovascular
Goal: Maintains optimal cardiac output and hemodynamic stability.
Interventions: Monitor vital signs, rhythm, and trends. Monitor for bleeding, hypotension,
and signs of decreased cardiac output. Assess equality of pulses, skin color and
temperature.
