Nursing process(ADPIE) example for Kaposi's Sarcoma..?

We Answered:

Kaposi's sarcoma is a skin cancer that starts in the tissues under the skin. Kaposi's sarcoma comes in several forms. Some are slow growing, and others are more aggressive and faster spreading. The slow growing forms usually start as a purple or dark-brown, flat or raised, area on the lower leg. The more aggressive forms of Kaposi's sarcoma start as a pink, red, or purple, round or oval, spot anywhere on the body, including internally. The tumors are usually not painful, but can sometimes cause swelling of the lower legs.

How can you tell if your family is jealous of you?

We Answered:

Wow, talk about an awful family.

Your grandmother is wrong. I've met women in the computer science field. It's true that it is a male-dominated field and you'll probably face some sexism, but then again if you get along with men it's a good place to be. You'll run into a lot of nerdy but interesting guys. Computer nerds are the greatest. =)

I would strongly recommend that you talk to your professors about helping you to find a mentor... a mentor can help guide your education and career, and can on a personal level be a very positive and influential person. It sounds like you really need someone who wants to see you succeed. Don't be shy about it, your professors are there to help. Maybe one of them will mentor you. They might also be able to help you find a PT job so you can start working in your field before you graduate.

what is the difference between a nursing home, home for the aged and retirement village?

We Answered:

Unfortunately, there's no "industry standard" definitions for the types of care people receive outside of a hospital. In my town, there's a "senior's lodge" that provides more nursing care than another building that's billed as "assisted living," so they're just names.

If you're asking because you're making an inventory of health care options available to elderly people in your town, you're better off looking at the facilities for yourself and also checking out the home care nursing (where the patient lives in his/her own family home but is cared for like someone in an institution). Then you can list what's available in each facility and see if any broad categories emerge, like maybe there are some facilities that have 24-hour nurses on duty and others that only provide nurses if the residents pay extra for them.
