Knowledge of the increased risk for pressure ulcers and the need for frequent turning and off-loading of pressure points could have allowed the staff to prevent the one forming along Mr. J’s spine. Proper education of all staff, nurses and aides alike, could have helped the CNA assisting the patient to identify the redness earlier and begin appropriate interventions. Another issue that could have been prevented through knowledge of indicators is the unnecessary use of restraints. If Mr. J’s mental status was such that he required additional safety measures, the need to adjust staffing to allow more direct care and observation of the patient could have been identified. Both the pressure ulcer
(1) Sickness & Diarrhoea (2) Burns and Scalds. (3) Fractures ands Suspected Fractures. (D5) EXPLAIN THE PROCEDURE TO BE FOLLOWEDIN THE EVENT OF AN ACCIDENT OR SUDDEN ILLNESS. (1) Get help as soon as possible example emergency services apply first aid training only if you got it. Make sure the client is as comfortable as can be staff should also protect themself complete accidents or sickness illness form log information in client file and inform seniority/manager of the incident.
HSC 2028 Move and position individuals in accordance with their plan of care 1 Understand anatomy and physiology in relation to moving and positioning individual. 1.1The spinal column is made up of individual bones called vertebrae. In between the bones there are joints that connect these together. A ligament connects bone to support joints. To move a individual incorrectly can cause ligaments to sprain.
B) The storing of medication whilst out on a day trip should be as the labelling states. Usually a large dry box is brought with various labelled medication/ medications in it for various service users and their specific medical needs. C) A record of all dosage and medicines that are consumed must be taken at the time of consumption during the day. A(vii) A) It is important that all staff is trained to the highest quality, when learning about first aid and emergency first aid. In case of an emergency that happens outdoors where there is more danger of falling, a nurse should always be on hand to attend the injured resident.
| | 1.1 Outline the anatomy and physiology of the human body in relation to the importance of correct moving and positioning of individuals (Planned: 0 , Completed:0) The anatomy and physiology of the human body explains that muscles are attached to the skeleton. They work like hinges or levers to pull or move particular joints when a muscle contracts, pulling the joint in the direction it is designed to move. Parts of the muscles move antagonistically. Muscles can become slack making movement slower and more difficult. This explains that the human muscles move in command from the brain.
Nursing Sensitive Indicators Nurse sensitive indicators included in this case are Mr. J’s use of restraints, complications of pressure ulcers, and patient satisfaction. Had the nurse who was caring for Mr. J been aware about the risks of pressure ulcer development with the use of restraints, the beginning stage of a pressure ulcer could have been prevented. Better RN assessment of Mr. J’s restraints, repositioning Mr. J every two hours and a thorough skin assessment should be done at every shift. The NA should be instructed to notify RN if they see anything out of the ordinary with patients, such as the redness to the lower spine of Mr. J. The nursing staff assigned to Mr. J will need additional training about restraints as far as appropriate use of restraints and how to care for a patient who is restrained.
Module 06 Case Study: Articulations and Nerve Tissue Part I— “Jill” Questions 1. What is the difference between a tendon and ligament? (1 point) Tendons bind muscle to bone, and ligaments bind bone to bone. A sprain is an extended and/or torn ligament, the band of connective tissue that connects the end of one bone with another bone. Ligaments support and stabalize the an individuals joints.
Unit 4222-232: Move and position individuals in accordance with their plan of care Outcome 1: Understand anatomy and physiology in relation to moving and positioning individuals 1.Outline the anatomy and physiology of the human body in relation to the importance of correct moving and positioning of individuals When moving and positioning individuals, it is important to ensre the individual is not moved more than their body is capable of, as muscles can only move bones at the joint as far as the joint allows. It is also important to move and handle correctly to ensure nerve fibres are not damaged as they are delicate, but also important as they send impulses in the body which enable muscles to relax and contract. 2.Describe the impact of specific
The function of these muscles is closely related to their structure and any differences in structure allow these two types of muscle to be identified. Cardiac and skeletal muscle is excitable tissue where stimulation of a single muscle fibre leads to excitation of a whole cell. They undergo contractions in response to an action potential, either resulting in pumping blood into pulmonary and systemic circulation or the movement of limbs. The contractile unit in both tissues is the same, the differences lie in the arrangement of these units and associate structures. The contractile unit consists of myofibrils which encompass repeating units of sarcomeres running end to end giving a striated appearance to the muscle.
Equipment in the clinical environment must be decontaminated appropriately after every use and before moving on to another patient.. Chloral clean should be made according to given method too much water or very less water makes it less effective. 2. Explain the purpose of cleaning schedules. Cleaning schedule is important as it explains staff and patients and visitors- who cleaned, what is cleaned, what time and day cleaning happened, how often cleaning happens, whether something nedds to be cleaned daily, weekly or monthly. 3.
