MARY ELLEN 0 Report Share Posted July 1, 2007 Is nursing addresses a persons vision and hearing impairments on their plan of care, do I need to make seperate care plans for activities that say the person is impaired? For example, if someone is sight impaired and likes to read, my care plan will have approaches like offer large print items to read, offer to read the newspaper etc. Thanks in advance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any issues regarding activity participation and the deficit need to come from you, along with an explanation of what alternatives you will offer.
