Nursing Care Plan: Provide Rest Periods To Promote Relief, Sleep, and Relaxation

The nursing care plan summarizes a patient experiencing abdominal pain after surgery. The plan includes three goals: 1) for the patient to verbalize relief from a pain scale of 10 to 4 after 2 hours of nursing intervention; 2) for facial grimaces to lessen; and 3) for the patient to reduce pain from a scale of 10 to 1 after 8 hours of continuous nursing intervention. The plan involves establishing trust, providing rest, and evaluating pain medications for effectiveness while monitoring side effects.
