Patient Education (In Pt.) & Discharge Planning (home needs) Diet & Exercise Modification: Because of A.R.’s diagnosis of chronic hypertension, it is very important her blood pressure be continuously managed. Her hypertension is easily manageable as there are many modifiable life changes she can make that can help improve her high levels of blood pressure such as exercise and implementing a diet regimen that uses less amounts of sodium and is rich in potassium, magnesium, calcium, fiber, and protein, such as the DASH diet. Patient Education S/S: Because A.R. has a history of pre-eclampsia with her previous pregnancy, she may be at risk for that and even eclampsia with this current pregnancy as well. She should be educated on the signs and symptoms of these conditions which are proteinuria, severe headaches, changes in vision, blurred or double vision, decreased urine output, shortness of breath, decreased urine output, increased blood pressure, swelling of the face and hands, right upper abdominal pain. Discharge: As of the provided patient info for A.R., there is no set discharge date for this patient. Patient A.R. should be referred to:  A dietician o A.R. requires a proper diet that will meet her nutritional need and aid her in managing her elevated blood pressure levels.  A therapist o A.R. may benefit and improve her pregnancy experience by possibly speaking with a Erickson’s Developmental Stage Related to pt. & Cite References (1) A.R.’s current age is 30 years old which places her in the sixth category of Erik Erikson’s stage theory of psychosocial development known as Intimacy vs. Isolation. This particular stage is indicated for individuals who are in their young adulthood from the ages of 18 to 40 years old. In this stage, the major issue stems from forming intimate, loving relationships with other people (Santrock, 2017). In Intimacy vs. Isolation, individuals begin to share themselves more intimately with others and explore different relationships with someone other than their own family member (Santrock, 2017). Successfully completing this stage of Erik Erikson’s psychosocial developmental stages will result in happy and healthy relationships that foster a sense of commitment, safety and care within the relationship whereas a failed result of this stage will resemble something that looks like avoiding intimacy, fearing commitment and relationships (Santrock, 2017). This can ultimately lead to isolation, loneliness, and possible depression (Santrock, 2017). After collecting all information needed for A.R.’s concept map, I believe that A.R. finds herself on the successful end of the Intimacy vs. Isolation psychosocial development stage. I have learned that she is happily married to someone at the age of thirty which means that she has been able to form an intimate, loving relationship with someone other than a family member. From this, they also have a 4- year old daughter they are raising together and another one on the way. A.R. also has stated throughout the duration of her hospital stay that she very much misses her daughter. It seems that A.R. has successfully been able to create and experience a sense of commitment, safety and care within her relationships and at home.

Carpal Tunnel Bilaterally: Carpal tunnel syndrome is a type of medical condition that is known to cause pain, numbness, and a tingling sensation of the hand and arm (Faust & Jennings, 2016).

GERD: GERD, or gastroesophageal reflux disease is a medical condition that occurs when an individual’s stomach acid consistently flows back upwards into the esophagus (MacGill, 2018).
