AI Summary
This assignment details the creation of a nursing care plan for an 89-year-old woman, Amalie Jones, who is experiencing a crisis due to multiple co-morbid conditions, including hypothyroidism, macular degeneration, and rheumatoid arthritis. The care plan utilizes the clinical reasoning cycle and Miller's functional consequences theory to prioritize interventions aimed at restoring mobility, managing pain, and ensuring medication adherence.

The patient showed improvements in pain management and daily activities, promoting a sense of self-sufficiency and hope for further recovery.
