Proper Hand Washing, Cleaning the Residents Unit, Handling bed linens correctly
Identify the measures to reduce the speed
(disposing contaminated linens) Keep equipment used by residents clean
of infection
(commode, tub, etc)
(1)Atrophy with steady loss of neuron structure in the brain and spinal cord
Identify Normal Physiologic Changes (2)Velocity of nerve conduction decreases, reaction time becomes slowed
occurring in the older adult in each body (3)Diminished sensation of touch, pain, taste, smell
system - Neuro (4)Progressive decrease in cerebral blood flow and oxygen consumption (may cause
dizziness & loss of balance)
(1) Loss of elasticity
(2)Skin folds and sags
(3)Decrease in number and function, Skin becomes dry
Identify normal physiologic changes (4)Discoloration due to increasing capillary fragility
occurring in the older adult in each body (5)Cell replacement is slowed down causing delay in wound healing
system - Skin, Hair, & Nails (6)Melanocytes decrease (hair turns gray)
(7)Decreased Hair growth, nail growth,
(8)Brittle nails
(9)Skin Moisture (xerosis)
IdentifyNormal Physiologic changes Bone Remodeling is cyclic process of resorption and deposition, Postural changes
occurring in the older adult in each body and decreased height (Kyphosis is common)
system - Musculosketal
BP = 90/60 mm HG to 120/80 HG
(systolic is top, Diastolic is bottom)
Respirations = 12 to 20 Breaths Per Minute (adult)
HR = 60 to 100 beats per minute
Define Normal Values for BP, HR,
Temp - Oral (97.6F-99.6F)
Respirations & Temperature

(1) Orientation Status (name, place, and time)
List appropriate subjective questions to ask (2) Impact on ADL's
a patient/resident when conducting a (3) Onset, duration, frequency
review of each body system (4)Is there any pain/weakness? if so where at?
(5) Any past treatments (medically/surgically)
Describe Flexion Bending a limb or joint
Describe Extension Straightening a limb or joint
Describe Abduction Moving a body part away from the midline
Describe Adduction Moving a body part towards the midline
Describe Inversion Moving the sole of foot inward at ankle
Describe Eversion Moving sole of foot outward at ankle
Describe Circumduction Circular movement of arm around the shoulder
Review Objective Head to Toe assessment Orientation, level of consciousness (person, place and time) facial symmetry, check
technique proper order pupils for constriction, movement of all extremities (does the shoulders shrug)
(abdomen/lung/heart) & appropriate
landmarks in each system as applicable
(pulse sites, heart valves, bowel sounds
(auscultate 5 min) Describe Abnormal
findings and what to report to the Health
Care Provider NEURO
Review Objective Head to Toe assessment Access Skin Temperature and moisture, fully assess skin integrity (pressure points
technique proper order from top to bottom) check on nail bed is there any clubbing?
(abdomen/lung/heart) & appropriate
landmarks in each system as applicable
(pulse sites, heart valves, bowel sounds
(auscultate 5 min) Describe Abnormal
findings and what to report to the Health
Care Provider HAIR SKIN NAILS
Review Objective Head to Toe assessment Inspect the oral mucosa (check for moisture and pinkness) access the position of the
technique proper order trachea (is it in the middle) carotid artery (palpate each one individually)
(abdomen/lung/heart) & appropriate
landmarks in each system as applicable
(pulse sites, heart valves, bowel sounds
(auscultate 5 min) Describe Abnormal
findings and what to report to the Health
Care Provider NECK VESSELS
Review Objective Head to Toe assessment Correct location of heart (base is at the 3rd intercostal vs apex is at the 5th
technique proper order intercostal) Listen to the heart sounds for a full minute with both the diaphragm and
(abdomen/lung/heart) & appropriate the bell, locate and auscultate the apical pulse, identify locations of S1 (apex) and S2
landmarks in each system as applicable (base), identify abnormal heart sounds (Brady, Tachy, Irregular)
(pulse sites, heart valves, bowel sounds
