Read Unfolding Case Study: Activity 3. Then, answer the reflective questions.
Case Study
Jean wanted nothing more than to live her final days at home. It was disappointing that she went to the hospital for lightheadedness and now would never return home. In long-term care, she secretly hoped she would be able to return home, she thought; if she worked hard enough. Her mood was uplifted when visited by her grandchildren. One evening, after her visitors had left, Jean placed her call light on for assistance to use the restroom. She waited for 20 minutes, and nobody came to help. She was worried she would be incontinent and soil her underclothing, so she got up independently. Unfortunately, she was too weak and dizzy and fell on the carpeted floor. Now, she was really scared. She thought she certainly wouldn’t be allowed to return home after falling. Fortunately, she was not injured but would not be allowed to leave her bed without others’ help. She became depressed and, sadly, died one week later surrounded by her family in long-term care.
Reflective Questions
After reading the case study, answer the following questions in a Microsoft Word document. Refer to the learning material presented in this module for guidance.
Reflect on your answers in Activity 1. Did Jean’s desire for independence stand out to you as important? If the staff knew Jean valued her independence, how could they have used this information to promote safety?
Explain how clinical forethought is used to predict potential complications and what it means to you as a future nurse.
Describe the value of seeing healthcare through the client’s eyes. How can nurses have an impact on the lives of clients like Jean?
In your opinion, did Jean receive client-centered care? Why or why not?
Read Unfolding Case Study: Activity 2. Then, answer the reflective questions.
Case Study
Jean had been living alone at home for two months after her diagnosis. One day when waking up, she developed lightheadedness. She called her son to help her. Her son insisted on driving her to the emergency room, where the doctors decided she would be admitted for tests. A CT scan revealed cancer had metastasized (spread) to her brain. The doctor and nurse discussed the situation with her four sons. The four sons were unable to stay with their mother. Although Jean was a very independent woman who wanted to go home, she would not be allowed to return home, but instead, the social worker arranged for her to be admitted to a long-term care facility.
Reflective Questions
After reading the case studies, answer the following questions 
What interventions protect patients from falling in the long-term care setting?
How is the ability to perform activities of daily living (ADL’s) related to safety?
Each response should be 3–5 sentences in length, clear and concise, original (using your own words), and free of grammatical errors.
please be sure to include at least one reference per case study to support your answers
