What is the best rationale for this intervention?You and your partner are dispatched for a report of an unresponsive 77-year-old male in a senior’s apartment complex. The time of the call is 08:36 am.Upon arrival, a home health aide greets you at the apartment door and informs you the patient is in the bedroom. As she leads you towards the bedroom, the aide begins to tell you she arrived for work about an hour ago and found the patient in his bed. “He normally is awake when I get here, but today I found him still in his bed. I thought he was only wanting to sleep in so I decided I would give him a little time, but he didn’t respond when I tried to wake him a few minutes ago.”She tells you she routinely visits Mr. Oliveira twice a week to help with cleaning and cooking. She says, “The last time I saw him was 3 days ago and he was sick at the time. I thought he might have come down with a bad cold because he was coughing a lot and I tried to encourage him to see his physician.”As you approach the patient’s bedside, you observe a thin,…Mrs. Perez’s nurse receives her from the postanesthesia care recovery unit (PACU) to her surgical unit. She realizes that orders are all discontinued when a patient leaves a floor and goes to the surgical suite for surgery. She is looking to admit her patient to her unit and needs a full order set for Mrs. Perez’s care from her surgeon for her postoperative care on the surgical unit. When the patient arrives, the nurse reviews all the new orders the surgeon has written for Mrs. Perez. The nurse will need to introduce herself and have the patient identify herself with two indicators. Once she has done that, she will then do the following to implement the nursing admission to the surgical unit: Interview the patient and/or husband and complete a history. Take vital signs and complete a physical examination. Create a care plan for the patient having acute pain postoperatively. Write an admission note using SOAPIE format (Subjective Data, Objective Data, Assessment, Plan, Implementation,…
