    Uploaded by

    Susan Croce
    This nursing care plan is for patient Susan Croce-Mwololo at Lincoln Tech Institute. The patient has impaired physical mobility due to morbid obesity and is unable to move around purposefully. The goals are for the patient to avoid complications of immobility, demonstrate use of adaptive devices to increase mobility 2-3 days per week, and increase strength in the lower limbs within 3-4 days. The nursing interventions are to reposition the patient every 2 hours, teach proper use of adaptive equipment, and teach active range of motion exercises for the legs as ordered.
