Reference no: EM133295600

Question: Mr Orford's surgery was successful (he had tendons released to reduce stiffness and pain in his left hand). He now has a hand/ wrist splint which he is to wear for the next six weeks. He can remove it for showers/ baths but must wear at all other times. He has some anti-inflammatory medications he must take twice a day for a least the next four weeks - these will reduce any swelling & thus his pain. An outpatient's appointment has been organised for two weeks' time. He is to go home this afternoon. You are working with the nurse looking after Mr Orford and he asks you what steps you think should be taken before George goes home with his splint & medications. Discuss how you would assess George's understanding of any education you have provided
