Documentation Assignments
1. Document findings associated with your screening of Mr. Carter using the AIMS scale.
Using the Aims scale I would say his score is at a level 2 because he is only exhibiting facial movement
which include frowning and movement of the forhead
2. Document Mr. Carter's performance of activities of daily living and his intake and output for the day.
Mr. carter has not been very active. He doesn't enjoy doing things he use to do. He also has slacked
off with personal hygiene because his clothes are not well kept and appear to be dirty. He talks about
being poisoned the whole assessment and has no desires to eat or drink. He only took a few sips of
water.
3. Reconcile Mr. Carter's medications prior to hospitalization.
Medications that Mr. Carter currently take are olanzapine 10 mg and venlafaxine XR 75 mg daily. He
has a 10 year history of schizophrenia and is unstable on medication.
4. Identify and document key nursing diagnoses for Mr. Carter.
Disturbed Sensory Perception: Auditory as evidenced by pt verbalizing that he is hearing voices
5. Referring to your feedback log, document all nursing care provided and Mr. Carter's response to
this care.

It's your fault for keeping us here to rot of poison!\nYou answered: My purpose for

the therapeutic technique of giving information.
