We can use the help of his son as well as any support groups in the community and continue to implement the help of a home health nurse. Focusing on how Mr. Yoder retains information best will be important here. We can alter our teaching methods to match his needs. It will also be important to focus on his readiness to learn. Using a multitude of techniques in Mr. Yoder’s plan of care will help him be successful in his discharge from the hospital. Implementing the assistance of community-focused programs can help give Mr. Yoder companionship. Support programs with the agencies on aging can be informative and helpful (www.agingcare.com, 2015). They can assist with getting patients to doctors appointment, planning meals, and offer support, which Mr. Yoder would benefit from all of those. Jon, Mr. Yoder’s son can also assist in educating and re-enforcing things to help Mr. Yoder remember what needs to be done, assisting him with his own accountability for his health. With the help of his son Jon, we can give him other people to help be accountable for his healthcare. To measure Mr. Yoder’s goals we can look at obtaining the number of times each week that he is able to leave the house or have assistance come in.
