Give this one a try later!

- treating them with respect when dealing with vulnerable situations: ie. going to

, 2 person specific identifiers
1. many older persons are without teeth
2.periodontal membrane weakens (tissue between tooth and tooth socket)
3.chronic illness increases risk for periodontal disease
4. dentures may not fit properly -> discomfort -> pain -> will not eat ->
decrease weight
5. weakened jaw muscles
6.dry mouth
7.poor nutrition
8.financial limitations, poor education, lack of transport
9.unwilling

patient.
Give this one a try later!
1. secure it - prevents trauma
2.closed system/clean ports/wash hands
3. unobstructed flow
4. bad below the bladder
5.avoid dependent loops
6.empty when half full
7. daily peri-care
8 avoid anything touching the floor
9. obtain urine samples from port
, By treating the pt with respect and compassion as you treat their
physiological needs and their psychosocial needs
- help support
- snug, but can fit two fingers
- above hip bone
- STABLE
- not used to hold weight

- patient is confined in bed
- a patient's weight
- a patient's ability to move and turn
- the patient's pain acuity
- the patient's restrictions related to their condition or treatment
