Case Study John - Assessment Two
ase Study John – Assessment Two - Value Assumptions and Transpersonal Teaching
You are a second year student nurse on placement in an aged care facility dementia unit and have been asked to omplete an assessment on John. John has been living in the facility for two years and was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s ementia five years ago. As you review John’s care plan you note that John was a talented actor and worked in some amous movies in Australia. You also note that John now has difficulty with speech and writing (aphasia) and short term
memory loss. It has been identified in the care plan that John is at times aggressive with staff, does not like moving
rom his chair and refuses to leave his room.
ou approach John in his room with some trepidation and explain to him that you would like to complete an
ssessment. You notice that he looks frightened when you speak to him and as you approach John he becomes very gitated and yells at you to leave the room. You decide to speak with the Registered Nurse (RN) who is in charge of the ementia unit that day.
When you explain what has happened to the RN she asks you whether you have reflected on the implications for John of is aphasia and short term memory loss and what it might mean for his ability to understand others and communicate. he also asks about whether you have reflected on the value assumptions as described by Watson’s caring science, efore approaching John. She explains that this is particularly relevant for John’s safety and well-being.
he registered nurse then asks you to reflect on the principles of transpersonal teaching, and in particular Principle 7: romotion of a transpersonal teaching and learning. She suggests that when you next approach John to base your
nteraction on an understanding of these principles as a person with unique needs, and as a basis for ethical, person entred care in practice.
ou spend some time preparing to approach John again, but this time calmly, with a caring attitude and a focus on a aring-healing modality. After you have introduced yourself to John and asked for his permission to enter his room, you
hare with him your love of movies and refer to his photos on the wall. As he starts to chat you notice he has stiffness in is legs and arms. You ask him if he would like a heat pack and massage as a way to relieve his discomfort. He agrees to
heat pack but continues to ask who you are and what you are doing in his room.
