After reading the passage list the learning needs of Mr. J along with why it is important for him to know these things. Also, list some domains and learning and why they’re important.
Case Study
Mr. J is an 88 year old Hispanic Male patient who lives alone on the second floor of a 4
story home. Mr. J admits to a history of multiple falls. He walks with an unsteady gait, and
although a walker has been prescribed for use with ambulation, Mr. J states: "I really only use it
when my daughter stops by." Mr. J does not have a PERS unit. He wears a hearing aid in the left
ear which "needs a new battery", and eyeglasses that are for distance and reading. A nurse has
been assigned to evaluate the safety of Mr. J's home environment; the following is the report of
the evaluation.
There are 5 steps to enter Mr. J's building, but there are no handrails on either side of the
steps. The entrance hallway has only 1 light that is dimly lit. The apartment opens to a small
entranceway, with the kitchen area to the left. The kitchen appears to be cluttered: there are
groceries all over the kitchen counters, along with plates and cups. The sink is full of dirty dishes
and utensils; there is a soiled scatter rug on the floor by the kitchen sink. There is a refrigerator,
stove, and a microwave in the kitchen, and all the wires appear to be grounded: none are frayed.
There are no smoke detectors or carbon monoxide units in the kitchen area; there is overhead
tract lighting but no wall or floor night lights. There is a telephone on the kitchen table: the table
and chairs appear to be sturdy. There is a candle on the table that is lit - Mr J states: "it's nice to
keep a candle on the table to take the smell of food out of the kitchen."
The bathroom is located to the right of the kitchen: there is a conventional commode, but
there are no grab bars next to the toilet. The sink is free-standing with a medicine cabinet directly
above which holds several medications that have expired. The lighting is limited to one small
lighting fixture that is directly above the medicine cabinet: there are no night lights in the
bathroom. There is a scatter rug in front of the sink; the tub does not have a safety mat and there
are no grab bars in the shower.
The bedroom is at the end of a hallway that is next to the bathroom: there is no lighting in
the hallway, and there is a scatter rug on the floor. There is a conventional bed with a clean
covering on it, a dresser that holds Mr. J's clothes, and a table with a lamp on it right next to the
bed: there is no phone in the bedroom. A chair is located in the corner of the bedroom with a
blanket thrown over the seat: one of the legs appears shaky and unsteady. There is a scatter rug
directly in front of the bed.
The living room is at the end of the hallway, just past the bedroom. There is a couch with
a blanket thrown over the side; next to the couch is a table with only one lamp that has no light
bulb. Mr J. states: "I keep forgetting to put a bulb in there – when the television is on it gives off
enough light." Directly in front of the couch is a television set; on top of the TV is a radio and a
clock all plugged into one outlet: the wire on the extension cord is frayed. There are 2 chairs
underneath a window in the living room that are cluttered with newspapers. The floor in this
room is bare. There is a small fan in the corner of the room: the cord is not plugged into the wall
outlet, but is draped across the floor in front of the fan. There are no wall or floor night lights in
the living room.
