The ER nurse took Karla’s vital signs, BP=90/70mmHg, RR = 21cpm (shallow), CR = 110 bpm (palpable). Further assessment revealed that her difficulty of breathing is brought about by the wound near the diaphragm area. Her officemate who accompanied her to the hospital said that Karla recently had been fired by her employer because of her hospitalization she had an argument with a drunken co-worker which led her to be stabbed several times. Furthermore, Kalra explained that she could not sleep well because of the pain on the wound sites. Karla also requested the nurse to do some bad bath because she feels very dirty. She also verbalized to the nurse, “How I wish could come back to my old job, how can I find a new one with the situation that I am into?
