P1 Unit 9 Values And Planning

Unit 9 assignment - Zoe Turan
(P1)
In this part of this assignment I will be Explaining, values and planning when organising holistic planning for service users. I will be reviewing the benefit to individuals and professional staff, of taking holistic approach to planning support, to do this I will be using to case studies. My first case study is about Sam, a 74 year old widower who is a strict vegetarian and a diabetic. He had a stroke two days ago and is leaving hospital at the end of the week. He is paralysed down the right side of his body. My second case study is about Gina, a 25 year old who was admitted to accident and emergency when she was round on the side of the road in extreme pain. Gina can’t speak English and has a broken pelvis
She is going to need physiotherapy and surgery. If Gina’s pelvic fracture is serious enough she could be kept on the intensive care unit for a short period of time. The surgery team will probably refer Gina to a physiotherapist, to make the recovery time quicker and to get her back on her feet as soon as possible. Gina’s broken leg may also need surgery and she is going to need crutches for both fractures as well as more physiotherapy. It is important that the both professional members of staff work together to make Gina’s recovery as swift as possible to keep her out of pain. Gina is also not going to be active for several months and is at high risk of blood clots, she is also going to need to be talked to about blood thinning medication to reduce the risk of this. It is important that all members of staff involved in Gina’s care work together or keep in contact incase anything changes in her care plan, or any other problems become relevant. The translator for Gina also needs to be present as well to make sure information between Gina and professional members of staff is being understood properly. This will also affect how much pain she is in, because she may not be able to say how much pain she is in to members of
