3. RISK FOR INFECTION r/t altered skin integrity, inadequate nutrition and fluid intake, presence of environmental pathogens, invasive instrumentation, and immobility

4. RISK FOR INJURY r/t acute confusion evidence by trying to get out of bed.

Prevention of future falls

Home care

• Take pain medication exactly as directed.

• Don’t drive until your doctor says it’s okay. And never drive if you are taking opioid pain medication.

• Wear the support stockings you were given in the hospital. Wear them 24 hours a day for 3 week(s).

• Get up and carefully move around at night to relieve pain.

• If you received an artificial hip joint, tell all your health care providers (including your dentist) about the joint before any procedure. You will likely need to take antibiotics before dental work and other medical procedures to reduce the risk of infection.

Incision care

• Avoid infection by washing your hands often. If an infection occurs, it will need to be treated with antibiotics immediately. So call your doctor right away if you think you may have an infection. Symptoms of infection include a fever or leakage of white, greenish, or yellowish-colored fluid from the incision.

• Check your incision daily for redness, tenderness, or drainage.

• Avoid soaking your wound in water (no hot tubs, bathtubs, swimming pools) until your doctor says it’s OK.

• Wait 7 day(s) after your surgery to begin showering. Then shower as needed. Carefully wash your incision with soap and water. Gently pat it dry. Don’t rub the incision, or apply creams or lotions. And sit on a shower stool when you shower to keep from falling.

HEALTH PROMOTION STRATEGIES

2. Exercise

• Do all exercises as per instruction.

• Arrange your household to keep

the items you need within reach.

• Remove electrical cords, throw rugs,

and anything else that may cause you to fall.

• Use nonslip bath mats, grab bars, an elevated

toilet seat, and a shower chair in your bathroom.

• Don’t bend at the hip when you bend over. Don’t bend at the waist to put on socks and shoes. And avoid picking up items from the floor.

• Use a cane, crutches, a walker, or handrails until your balance, flexibility, and strength improve. And remember to ask for help from others when you need it.

• Free up your hands so that you can use them to keep balance. Use a fanny pack, apron, or pockets to carry things.

• Follow your doctor’s orders regarding how much weight to place on the affected leg.

• Use an elevated toilet seat for 6 week(s) after surgery.

• Use pillows between your legs when sleeping

on your back or on your healthy side.

• Sit on a firm cushion when you ride in a car and avoid sitting too low. Try not to bend your hip too much when getting in and out of the car.

• Don’t sit for more than 30 to 45 minutes at a time.

• Use chairs with arms, and sit with your knees slightly lower than your hips. Don’t sit on low or sagging chairs or couches.

• Don’t lean forward while sitting.

• Don’t cross your legs.

• Keep your feet flat on the floor. Don’t turn your foot or leg inward. This stresses your hip joint.

Calcium and Vit D

Estrogen Replacement

Decrease fall-risk Environment

5. Supplements:

- supplemental calcium that contains vitamin D.

- recommended vitamin D is

400-1000 IU for younger adults and

800-2000 IU for older adults and for people with high risk for osteoporosis.

Health Teaching Plan

Limit Caffeine

(e.g. low-fat and skim milk, non fat yogurt, and reduced fat cheese, salmon and sardines, leafy green vegetables.)

Adequate intake of Calcium and vitamin D.
