Nursing info required please...?

1. The person is disorientated.
2. The person does not speak English.
3. The person has a speech impediment.
4. The person is denying their illness.
5. The person does not understand your questions because of an intellectual disability.
For each of these factors can you give an example to illustrate how the characteristics could be overcome in relation to data collection if there were no family members or significant others available?

1/ Reorient person to person, place, and thing. Keep patient in a enviroment that is safe and supervised.
2. Use an interpreter.
3. By asking patient to write down answers that are not easily understood this barrier can be overcome.
4. Document objective data such as facial grimacing, or gaurding areas. What ever you as the staff member can see.
5. Use short easily understood questions and simplify using terms that are easily understood. Avoid medical jargon.
