Q1: When visiting Farhan to change his dressing you notice over granulating tissue. What action do you take?
Answer. The wound needs to be ressassed, Though in reassessing the wound again we have to check the colour of the grannulatiin if its healthy or unhealthy granulation. If the wound is pink in colour its an indication of healing. If the surface of the wound is dark red then its an unhealthy grannulation and it may mean that the wound has been infected.
2: Farhan does not always understand what is happening to him during a consultation. How do you approach this?
Adapt your communication to explain to Farhan carefully and appropriately what is happening.
Q3: People who live in assisted living can be discharged home at any time?
Wrong, each patient needs to be treated as an individual. Needs change and you need to establish the cause for admission in the first place. Every patient has there needs and the reason they have been admitted into the hospital and this will determine the length of time they will be discharged back into the community.
