Q

Comfort Management Documentation (Sample Note)

A

Comfort assessed, patient verbally rates comfort as a 1 out of 10 on the comfort verbal rating scale. The patient states “I do not know how I can move myself since I have had hip surgery.” Head placed on pillow, patient positioned on right side with abductor pillow adjusted between knees. Offered an ice pack to the hip and patient was agreeable. Patient educated regarding proper body alignment, the purpose of the abductor pillow, the ice pack, and the length of time it is applied. Informed patient to request it as needed. Post interventions, patient stated comfort was 8 out of 10 on the comfort verbal rating scale. Patient able to state “I am keeping my body in proper alignment makes me feel better, the abductor pillow will support the muscles in my hip and the ice pack will remain in place for 20 minutes at a time.” Patient also states “I can use my arm to move myself in bed.”
