@@unifiedosce5580 frequency of monitoring of observation in the community scinario what can we write .if it is 4 to 6 hourly as per news score of 4 .is it possible to check every four hourly in the community
Hi, In Assessment you based your monitoring frequency as stated in the NEWS chart policy even if it is community. But for Re-evaluation, it will depends on the problem you are addressing.
Good afternoon. Thanks for all you are doing. Please I have a resit in this planning of alzheimer's disease. I planned for headache because my patient said she is experiencing headache with a pain score of 5/10. I got a feedback that it is not based on the needs of my patient. My 2nd plan was cognitive Impairment. Aim was patient cognitive Impairment will improve to the level he can cope with. Got a feedback that the aim of the plan is not appropriate. My patient is 42 years old, and that alzheimer's disease is a chronic health condition that deteriorate gradually. Please help me oo.
Hi, Video is very helpful. Please in a situation where the patient mentions a different nursing problems during assessment from the already filled health questionnaire e.g PHQ-9. Which one do we plan with? Thank you.
For the patient to have a PHQ9 CHART filled and based on the total score, you already have one nursing problem which is depression with PHQ9 score of ---- The second nursing problem can come from the questions on the chart, but you need to confirm from the patient. E.g, if on the chart, the patient have a highest score on loss of appetite or overeating, you ask the patient if it is loss of appetite he/she is having, then you can use it as your 2nd nursing problems. Nutrition is also part of the questions to be asked under physical questions but once it is addressed on PHQ9 chart, no need to ask again under physical questions.
@@folorunshoboseodunayo3744 IF YOU CHOOSE LOSS OF APPETITE FOR EXAMPLE AS ONE OF THE NURSING PROBLEMS, DO YOU NEED TO WRITE ABOUT THE MALNUTRITION UNIVERSAL TOOL (MUST) IN INTERVENTION?
First can I say you are an absolutely brilliant teacher, by far the best I have found on UA-cam. My question is, can nurses use the 6CIT tool? And if not, can we still include assessing the patient using this tool as a nursing intervention?
Hi Annie, yes the tool use is more applicable with Mental health Nurse. In OSCE, it will be prefilled and do a scoring over 28. Yes 6CIT can be applied as an assessment tool for your intervention. Appreciate the comment on Unified.
Hi I have to resit for my Alzheimers scenario, my nursing problem will be Frankie is experiencing significant cognitive impairment with a 6CIT score of 16, what will be my aim? Frankie will show no deterioration or able to remember things with 6CIT of 16. please I need help :(
Hi, sorry to hear that. Suggestion : To be re-evaluated today (Date of Exam) 2 weekly or as clinical condition changes. Please do apply your clinical judgement. All the best.
Hi,@@bosedeamoran9498you can state it as Aim: J will demonstrates coping mechanism to deal with cognitive impairment. This is a suggestion, please carry out more findings, waiting for your success story.
@@unifiedosce5580 My 2nd care plan was cognitive Impairment. Aim was cognitive Impairment will improve to the level he can cope with.

@UNIFIED OSCE please in evaluation which vital sign is the recent one… is it the one in our question paper or the one that was done during assessment…Thanks
Hi... I failed planning stations . I have written memory loss and nutritional imbalance . My feedback is inappropriate care plan. But I don't know which one i write in resit . When I assessed My patient Frankie has no other problem. Can I write other care plan according to scenario. Please help me 🙏
Hi, si sorry to hear that. I will suggest that you go for relevant problems based on the scenario . As you said the problems you identified were not appropriate. Read through some of the comments, have a look at the updated video on Alzheimers planning and go for the most relevant. All the best.
Lovely video! Please this question is quite unrelated to Alzheimer's. In the case of post op planning, can you say "Mr. X is experiencing ineffective breathing pattern related to effect of anesthesia evidenced by..."? can that nursing diagnosis be used generally?
Hi, in all planning your plan can not be generalised, it needs to be relevant to the history or complaints given. In post-operative scenario , if the patient is not having difficulty in breathing it will not be applicable. You can go for pain related to surgical incision, risk for bleeding or risk for infection. Hope this helps.
Thanks for your response.You can still write if clinical condition changes but this depends on the nursing problem itself, if it's dehydration,pain......of course the clinical condition can change but if it's a problem like memory loss , behavioral issues.... you can't write if clinical condition changes cause it's irreversible.
Hi Athira, your comment is valuable and appreciated. Unified will pin a comment as regards this. Re-evaluation: J. S will be re-evaluated today(Date of Exam) ongoing as condition requires, no need to include sooner if clinical condition changes for confusion or Memory Impairment
@@athiraannu7208 Mine also @ Northumbria. I have written impaired memory and risk for falls. But in the feedback they mentioned that risk for falls is inappropriate.
Hi, Planning needs to be personalized based on the specific needs. Even though it is a community scenario, he lives in a care home- a problem of Urinary incontinence can not wait for a week. You are advised to based your judgement on the relevant timing that best fits in your scenario.. For example, in the past NEWS chart is not applicable in community scenario.
Hi, this is a suggestion due to the fact that Alzheimer's is irreversible. Please carry out more findings and reach a conclusion based on your clinical judgement. Thanks
Hi, it is advisable to go for related problems that is easy to solve. However, you can say -Self care deficit related to inability to carry out Activities of daily living or Self Care deficit related to cognitive impairment (as applicable to the given scenario) Aim:To assist / support with Activities of daily living or “A’s’ will be supported with activities of daily living to a level he can cope with.
@@unifiedosce5580 please planning for self care deficit, can the aim be j will participate in his activities of daily living within the limit of his disease condition?
Please I have another question oo😢😢 I'm a little confused about this 6CIT score of a thing. Is it compulsory? Must it be included in your assessment and planning for Alzheimer's disease? What if you don't see such document on your table, can you just go on without it?
I have written increased memory loss and risk for falls, but the feedback showed that risk for falls is inappropriate and reevaluation date, every visit is wrong. Could you please tell me what will be the appropriate reevaluation date in community setting?
Hi, have a critical review of the scenario, for example if patient is mobile and independent, risk for fall will be inappropriate. You can re-evaluate today, ongoing based on clinical condition. All the best.
@@unifiedosce5580 Thank you.. Please note that in my scenario , the pt has impaired memory, confusion, chronic headache, anxiety, depression, behavioral issues and inability to perform daily activities. So, could you please tell me what two problems can be proritised from this list?
Hi Jessy, based on the problem stated, you can choose to go for either confusion or Memory Impairment, Anxiety, difficulty in performing Activities of daily living. This is just a suggestion, have a critical review as well. Hope to hear good news soon.
@@jessysunny9138 I think u can use depression too, pain due to the chronic headache but u need to score the pain, anxiety. I think not being able to complete ADLs may be too wide to plan upon.
Hi, for weight loss you are likely to have a Malnutrition Universal Screening Tool (MUST), the score needs to be considered. It can be today (the date of your exam) weekly or bi-weekly or sooner if the clinical condition changes depending on the level of Risk. For confusion, it can not be a generalised approach, the scenario will need to be considered.
I also did same thing in aim as she explained but I got failed...they said I need to write treat or manage symptoms not improve memory coz itz not possible
