00:01
So now that
we've talked about those,
when we talk about
implementation,
and we've developed
that care plan,
those interventions,
which is the action phase
need to be implemented here.
00:11
This is often a
multidisciplinary approach.
00:14
Meaning we may have to work
with physical therapy,
or physician,
or other health care providers
to meet this goal.
00:21
So also keep in mind
when we're talking about
implementation,
many times we're going to have
to collaborate
and also delegate certain things,
and that's essential
in coordinating care,
especially for
Mrs. Meyer here.
00:35
And when we're talking about
achieving goals for your patients,
nurses implement care
to meet these goals.
00:41
So as you recall,
we've talked about really early.
00:44
We're making a treatment care plan
for our patient.
00:47
We've created all these
interventions for Mrs. Meyer,
like watch your oxygen,
provide pain education,
if you remember.
00:54
Maintain that head of bed up.
00:56
Then if you remember,
we decided priorities
with all that information we had,
which if you recall,
oxygenation and pain control
for Mrs. Meyer.
01:05
And of course, we want to move
that bridge towards the goal
and making sure Mrs. Meyer is an
active participant in her own care.
01:14
So our treatment plan
should always remember
that we're keeping
the patient goal in mind
to create that bridge
and good effective care.
01:22
As you recall, when we're
looking at this arrow here,
those things in the green
such as activities of daily living,
these are much safer
to delegate.
01:30
And the more complex
that the intervention is,
that may not be so safe,
and we need to consider this
when we're talking about
delegation.
01:41
Well, so let's have
a little update here on Mrs. Meyer.
01:44
So at the end of our shift,
she is no longer needing
her use of supplemental oxygen.
01:49
Also her pain score,
which is typically a 4 out of 10.
01:52
but she's still having
a score out of 7 out of 10.
01:56
Sometimes she's not tolerating
her medications very well
enough to take those
and to control her pain.
