The document discusses a nursing assessment, diagnosis, plan of care, interventions, and evaluation for a patient presenting with impaired skin integrity related to edema, impaired healing, and thin, friable skin. The short term goal is to establish rapport with the patient and assess their condition within 12 hours of nursing intervention. The long term goal is for the patient's skin to show timely healing without complications and for them to maintain optimal nutrition and physical well-being. The plan involves independent nursing assessments and monitoring, dependent administration of medications as ordered, and collaborative referral to local support groups.
