What This Document Is
This document is a completed care plan assignment for NURS 324, Nursing Care Adults II at Indiana State University. It focuses on a Shadow Health simulation involving Ms. Walker, a patient nearing the end of life, and specifically addresses the “End of Life Results” focused exam within the Gerontology (NURC 338) portion of the course. The assignment assesses the student’s ability to apply nursing diagnoses, create short-term goals, and develop appropriate interventions based on patient data.
Why This Document Matters
This assignment is intended for students enrolled in NURS 324. It serves as a graded evaluation of their clinical reasoning and care planning skills in the context of end-of-life care. It’s used to demonstrate competency in applying the International Classification for Nursing Practice (ICNP) and integrating concepts from gerontology coursework.
Common Limitations or Challenges
This document represents *one* student’s response to the simulation. It is a completed example and should not be copied. It is designed to illustrate a possible approach to the assignment, but individual patient presentations and student interpretations may vary. It does not replace the need to independently complete the simulation and develop your own care plan.
What This Document Provides
The full document includes: subjective and objective data collected from the Shadow Health simulation, a nursing diagnosis with rationale, a short-term goal, proposed interventions with rationales, and a comparison between the student’s response and the model answer provided by the simulation. This preview only provides a glimpse into the content; the full document contains detailed explanations and scoring feedback.
