Question.

1. Identify/Give 3 priority problems of John. (that can be used to create a Nursing Care Plan for John)

Thank you!

 

John, 33 years old, has been admitted to the hospital for the third time with a diagnosis
of Schizophrenia. John had been taking Haloperidol (Haldol) but stopped taking it 2
weeks ago, telling his case manager it was, and "The poison that is making me sick"
Yesterday John was brought to the hospital after neighbors called the police because he
had been up all night yelling loudly in his apartment. Neighbors reported him saying, "I
can't do it. They don't deserve to die!" And similar statements. John appears guarded
and suspicious and has very little to say to anyone. His hair is matted, he has a strong
body odor, and he is dressed in several layers of heavy clothing even though the
temperature is warm. So far, John has been refusing any offers of food and fluids. When
the nurse approached John with a dose of Haloperidol, he said "Do you want me to die?
