SP, a 56-year-old client with Type 2 Diabetes, was admitted to the medical-surgical unit for management of a stage 3 ulcer on her right heel. Although she is compliant with her diabetic medication routine and adheres to her prescribed diet, she still struggles with keeping her blood sugar within a normal range. SP tells the nurse that she works on a production line in a factory. She states “I work such long hours that by the time I get home, I’m tired. I’m just worn out. I also find that I am going slower on the production line because my eyesight is getting worse.” On admission, her vital signs are: Temp 36, HR 86, RR 20, BP 143/90, O2 Sat 96%, blood glucose 13.5mmol/L.
nursing diagnosis is- Anxiety related to worsening eyesight and the impact it has on the patient’s ability to perform her job as evidenced by the patient’s statement that she is going slower on the production line due to her poor eyesight
