Nursing Care Plan for Acute Pyelonephritis

The nursing care plan summarizes the care provided to a 38-year-old female patient diagnosed with acute pyelonephritis and severe anemia. The plan includes assessing the patient's understanding of her condition, monitoring her vital signs, explaining the causes and treatment of her urinary tract infection. The objectives are for the patient to verbalize knowledge of her condition and treatment, and enhance her therapeutic management as evidenced by agreeing to follow her medication and antibiotic therapy at home. Nursing interventions include establishing rapport, health teaching on preventing future infections, and evaluating that the patient's understanding and commitment to treatment are improved after 4 hours.
