This paper describes an aged long-term hemodialysis patient who had to move into a nursing center because his family could no longer take care of him at home. Faced with changes to his lifestyle and living environment, he had great difficulty in adapting to his new environment. Consequently, he developed negative emotions, such as sadness, depression, weakness, loneliness, and self-doubt, etc. The nursing care period started from June 17, 2013 to August 23, 2013. We collected information through direct nursing care, observation, interviews, and medical chart inspection, etc. We used the Roche adaptation mode to conduct an overall assessment, confirming that his health problems included excess body fluid, changes in nutritional status and migration stress syndrome, etc. During the nursing process, we formulated a special form for shift handover between the nursing center and the hemodialysis unit in order to facilitate the seamless integration of care. We also designed a customized menu with the nutritionists to increase food variety and selectivity. employing the food models to demonstrate the correct serving amounts for adequate protein intake. We also made water intake cue cards and used a water measuring cup to illustrate how to control water intake. During the dialysis session, we took the initiative to accompany the patient, demonstrated our concerns, and guided the patient to express his fears. We also provided an appropriate environment for the expression of his discontented emotions and feelings. With continued three-way communication and coordination, we helped to create a familiar living environment for him by using items he used daily from his previous home. We also used old photos and songs for nostalgia therapy so as to reduce the pressure of migration to his new environment and guide the patient to explore the meaning and value of life, helping him to be comfortable in body and mind in his later years. |
