This document discusses wound management and healing. It covers the goals of wound care including facilitating hemostasis, decreasing tissue loss, promoting healing, and minimizing scarring. The three main types of wound healing - primary, secondary, and tertiary intention - are described. Factors that affect wound healing like diabetes, infection, drugs, nutrition, tissue necrosis and hypoxia are summarized. The basics of wound evaluation, preparation, closure, and aftercare are outlined, including debridement, reducing bioburden, optimizing blood flow and oxygen supply, and using dressings appropriately.
There are several types of wounds including incisions, contusions, abrasions, punctures, and lacerations. Wound drainage can include serous, purulent, or sanguineous exudate. The RYB color code categorizes wounds as red, yellow, or black based on their appearance and healing phase. Red wounds are usually healing and require protection. Yellow wounds contain slough or pus and should be cleansed. Black wounds have necrotic tissue that requires debridement. Wound cleaning involves using isotonic saline to clean or irrigate wounds as needed based on the amount of exudate or foreign material present.
This document discusses different methods of nursing documentation. It describes narrative documentation, problem-oriented medical records (POMR), SOAP/IER notes, PIE notes, and focus charting. It also defines different types of nursing diagnoses like actual, risk, and potential complications. Nursing documentation is an important part of ensuring high-quality patient care. Proper documentation includes recording assessments, care provided, and evaluation of outcomes.

Addressing sexual needs_in_residential_care[1]aifl
Sexuality and intimacy are important aspects of quality of life for older adults and nursing home residents. While physiological changes may occur, residents are still capable of enjoying sexual activity and intimacy.

Issues like inappropriate public behavior or non-consensual activity require intervention, but the focus should be on supporting residents' dignity and rights to intimacy within appropriate boundaries.
Addressing sexual needs_in_residential_care[1]aifl
Sexuality and intimacy are important aspects of quality of life for older adults and residents of care facilities. While physiological changes may occur, residents are still capable of enjoying sexual activity. Staff should receive training to address residents' sexual needs and preferences respectfully. Policies should protect residents' right to intimacy while preventing inappropriate or non-consensual behavior. When issues do arise, staff should seek to understand triggers and respond by redirecting to private areas or setting limits, without shaming residents.
Vital signs provide important health information. The most common vital signs measured are temperature, pulse, blood pressure, and respiration. Alterations in vital signs can indicate a need for further intervention. Personal care workers are responsible for accurately recording clients' vital signs according to workplace protocols and reporting any abnormalities to supervisors or medical professionals.

Mobility is important to prevent complications from immobility and promote independence. Supporting ambulation involves walking with clients and providing assistance as needed based on their condition. Various walking aids like sticks and frames can help increase stability, and clients need supervision until confident walking independently with their aid. Common musculoskeletal disorders like arthritis and osteoporosis can affect mobility and cause pain, so treatment focuses on reducing inflammation, encouraging exercise and mobility aids, and preventing further issues like falls.
