Relevant activities of living

Process patient information identifies relevant activities of living impacted, and identifies nursing issues for the patient: Interpret and analyze the information you have been given about his condition; Identify and prioritize 3 nursing issues you must address for Mr. Kowalski, and justify why they are priorities and support your discussion with evidence; discuss the potential impact of the disease on Mr. Kowalski’s 3 most important activities of living. Link your discussion to the Roper-Logan and Tierney model.

Steps 5 and 6: Establish goals and take action: Identify 3 SMART goals (1 per nursing issue identified) with a comprehensive discussion of the desired outcome, within a suitable time frame; Identify interventions to achieve the above goals. The interventions should be nursing based; consider both pharmacological and non-pharmacological management; recognize strategies to empower and educate Mr. Kowalski.

Steps 7 and 8 – Evaluation and Reflection: Consider what strategies/aspects would determine that the interventions have been successful or effective for Mr. Kowalski. Include your conclusion here, and part of that should include an overall statement of what have you learned from doing this case study (what has been learned, what went well, and what could have been improved)
