Discharge Plan Assiigment
For this assignment, the student is the case manager assigned to composing a discharge plan for a patient who does not want to consider any other plan than to return to their home. The student will select a hospitalized client and determine the patients discharge plan. The student will create a scenario where the family is in disagreement about future care plans for the patient. Focus is on two elements significantly influencing the process, the patient”s decisional capacity and the involvement of family members in decision-making. Discuss in terms of factors compromising the autonomy of the patient and the interdependency of family members. Examples for scenarios could include new onset CVA, with left-sided weakness, CHF with 4 admissions in the last 6 months, ESRD on dialysis, Status Post MVA with a TBI, metastasized pancreatic cancer, or another form of cancer. The student is to complete the discharge planning process from admission until discharge, completing the case management documentation. Complete an initial assessment at the time of admission, keeping in mind that discharge decisions are more easily reached and understood when the purpose and expected outcome for admission to treatment is agreed upon when a client is admitted for service
