Impaired Memory

The document outlines a nursing assessment and plan of care for a client experiencing impaired memory related to their current condition. The plan includes assessing the client's orientation, providing opportunities to reminisce about the past, giving single-step instructions, offering assistive devices for activities of daily living, and encouraging the client to maintain regular routines to prevent confusion. The goal of improved functioning with routine tasks within two weeks was met, as the client was able to demonstrate relief from frustration with memory loss.
