His complications have included moderate alcohol withdrawal, electrolyte imbalances, refeeding syndrome, delirium, skin breakdown from edema and frequent diarrhea, hypotension, and deconditioned mobility.For assignment 2 concept map and case analysis you are the RN in charge of Mr. Scottaline's care and you want to develop a nursing care plan to provide direction for his acute priority needs. Use the assessment data and information in the case scenario to guide your development of the one-page only concept map visual diagram. Identify and outline 6-10 nursing care priorities related to this case scenario and number the care priorities in level of importance.  Include lines and arrows to visually display relationships and connections among concepts. Include linking words with the lines to indicate the nature of the connection or relationship (for example: leads to, influences, contributes to, results in, etc.) Part B. MethodsInclude a full nursing care plan (nursing diagnosis, SMART goals, nursing interventions supported with credible and current sources of evidence, and evaluation statements) with the first nursing care priority you have identified. This can be completed as an appendix attached to the paper portion of the assignment. Refer to the Assignment 1 and 2 marking guide in the Assessment Overview for further direction of the requirements of the concept map as well as case analysis. You may also find it useful to go back to Unit 1 and review the content related to Concept Mapping. Keep in mind the concept map in Unit 1 is not as fully detailed as we expect your concept map to be. The concept map is worth 65% of your entire mark for this assignment, so spend your time constructing this.Can you write 10 nursing diagnosis and number it which one first, second, third priortya.. what did you do?b. who did you do it for?c.
