Report outlining the assessment and care planning required for the physical and mental health of
Adult patients.
Introduction
This report explores the evaluation and care planning process for an adult patient in a hospital setting
with a particular emphasis on delivering person-centered, evidence-based nursing care. The patient
received the name Joh for confidentiality purposes as per NMC guidelines. Medical staff found the
patient in his home state of confusion and dizziness which necessitated his transport to the Accident and
Emergency (A&E) department. Medical staff discovered him after his fall and doctors later diagnosed a
stroke that led to urine retention. The evaluation of admitted patients will be analyzed and evaluated
within this report. The report focuses on evaluating the essential component of urine elimination
therapy. This report will evaluate and analyze the nurse evaluation conducted upon admission. It will
concentrate on one critical part of the treatment for urine elimination. The effective implementation of
this aspect of treatment will be examined critically in light of multidisciplinary engagement on national
and local regulations. It will be an evidence-based nursing practice. The report demonstrates how nurse
evaluations influence care planning and how the successful implementation of care plans contributes to
safe and appropriate discharge decisions.
Case Study on Presenting Condition and Admission
John who is 65 years old resides in a council apartment by himself since he lacks social connections and
family support. Ambulance services transported him to the A&E hospital when neighbors found him
disoriented in his bathroom unable to move his feet. On the first assessment, John complained of
dizziness, confusion, and weakness on his left side. He had been struggling to pass urine for more than
24 hours and ended up being diagnosed with a stroke after a CT head scan. The urinary retention was
also confirmed by bladder scanning. The urinary retention diagnosis was established through bladder
scanning. His entry to the hospital was unplanned while his unobserved fall put safety and health at
risk.
John's medical history includes hypertension, type 2 diabetes, and hypercholesterolemia, all of which
are established risk factors for cerebrovascular accidents. On admission, his Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS)
score was 13/15, and his blood glucose levels were high. His vital signs were unstable, thus a complete
series of baseline measurements was conducted. John was catheterized to ease urine retention and
then admitted to a hospital ward for additional monitoring and multidisciplinary care. Healthcare
providers catheterized John to manage his urine retention and doctors transferred him to the hospital
ward for continued observation and multiple medical treatments. A thorough nursing evaluation
proceeded to create an individualized care plan and general plan based on person-centered principles
because of his restricted mobility and cognitive changes.
Main Discussion
Nursing Assessment Tools Used
The delivery of proper care for John relied on different structured assessment approaches which nurses
utilized. The plan enables complete understanding of patient health requirements. Medical staff
conducted a complete nursing evaluation on John by employing the Roper-Logan-Tierney (RLT) model of
nursing after his unwitnessed fall at the A&E department. The evaluation method establishes a
