Expert Solution
Step 1

This case study has several sub parts to it. We will cover one by one.

Subjective data is the data collected from the patient. It is defined as what the patient tells. When a patient complaints of falls and says, he hasn't recovered from it, then it is a red flag to collect more details.

There are tests to be ordered, guidelines to be followed.

Patient also needs other referrals for a holistic care.
