Question
What are two lifestyle behaviours or strategies that Ms Vasili has developed and Identify two different body systems that are benefitted by each behaviour/strategy. Ms Vasili is a 24-year-old supported by your service. She lives in her own home but has a genetic condition that affects a number of bodily systems and means she needs assistance at least once a week. Her health problems, some due to the genetic condition and some of unknown cause, include:
• A weak innate immune system.
• Muscle pain and cramping affecting the muscles in her back, shoulders, and arms. This causes significant pain as well as difficulty with some ADLs when she experiences a "flare up".
• Regular gastrointestinal distress, including pain, nausea, and constipation.
• Episodes of hypotension and tachycardia. Ms Vasili attends university two days a week, studying from home when her health problems mean that she cannot manage travelling to and around her university. She stays mentally active - in addition to her studies she enjoys reading, writing, doing word puzzles, and playing strategy games with friends (either in person or online). She is physically active, too, with a stationary bike at home that she uses for exercising several.
