Jimmy Jansen is a 44 year old man with type 1 diabetes mellitus. He was recently referred to your home health agency for case management follow up at home. He is experiencing multiple complications from his diabetes, including the recent onset of blindness and peripheral neuropathy. His left leg was amputated below the knee last year because of a gangrenous infection of his foot. he is unable to wear his prosthesis at present because he has a small ulcer at the stump site. His chart states that he has been only “intermittently compliant” with blood glucose testing or insulin administration in the past despite the visit of a community health nurse on a weekly basis over the past year.

He has not worked for more than 10 years and has no insurance other than Medicaid. The home he lives in is small, and he says that he has not been able to maintain it with his wife gone. No formal safety assessment of his home has been conducted. He also acknowledges that he is not eating right because he now must do his own cooking.

Then make a list of at least five goals that you would like to accomplish in planning Mr. Jansen’s car. Make sure that these goals reflect patient outcomes. 3. What referrals would you make?

If you do not identify the learning exercise you will receive a “0” List which Learning Exercise you are solving at the start of your analysis and provide a brief summary of the case. Be sure to apply an appropriate problem-solving/decision-making model (Traditional Problem-Solving Process, Managerial Decision-Making Model, The Nursing Process, or the Integrated Ethical Problem-Solving Model) in determining what you should do.
