Nursing
Review Henderson’s definition of nursing and the current ANA definition of nursing.
Explain how and why the definition has developed over time. If the definition would
be updated again, what do you feel needs to be added? Be specific and provide
reasons. In anticipation of the home health nurse visit scheduled for later in the
morning, Mrs. Anderson reflected on her current living situation: The grandchildren
were late for school again! What would their mother say? Ever since Mrs. Anderson
had moved in with her daughter-in-law, it seemed that she just couldn’t do things
the way her daughter wanted her too. She wondered if she would ever get it right.
She had volunteered to make breakfast for the children and see them off to school
in the mornings, since both her son and daughter-in-law left for work before the
children left for school. She felt she had to help out somehow to repay her family.
They had been helping her since before she fell and then had to have surgery. Her
hip was healing nicely after the surgery and the doctor said she might be able to
stop using the walker soon, but it seemed to be taking too long to her. The
medicines were so difficult to take. The calcium pills were so big! Sometimes she
just wanted to be back in her little apartment and be taking care of herself by
herself. She just didn’t understand why everyone thought she would forget to eat
or take care of herself. She was doing just fine!! She did very well when she was
helping her late husband Fred. She helped with the bathing and turning and getting
him out of bed when he couldn’t walk anymore. The home health nurses always told
her what a good job she was doing with her husband. It just didn’t seem like 9
months since he had passed away. ?What factors should be considered when the nurse
assesses the self-care agency of Mrs. Anderson in order to determine Mrs. Anderson
‘s nursing care needs? ?What self-care deficits can be identified for Mrs.
Anderson? ?Using Orem’s Theory of Self-Care Deficits, develop a plan of care for
Mrs. Anderson. Develop 1 nursing diagnosis with nursing interventions. ?What
additional nursing theory (from the ones we had discussed) would you incorporate
into Mrs. Anderson’s care to provide additional support? Explain how you would
apply the theory to this case and how the theory would change the plan of care.
Power Point should include at least 3 outside references and the textbook. It
should include title and reference slides and be 14-20 slides. textbook used is
