This assignment (essay) is based on interview performed by student nurse on a person about how their chronic condition impacts their ADLs (RLT MODEL) and quality of life then Collaborate with them to establish Smart Care Goals for their management of their condition.

The goals set for this client must be smart i.e specific, measurable ,attainable, relevant and time- based eg : pain management. You can’t set goals that is not achievable for the client.
Student nurse should link underlying knowledge/ research of the pathophysiology into the written discussion using CRC to make sense of symptoms/situation BUT the focus is on the overall impacts to the individuals life.
There are chances that all the aspects of RLT model might not be covered so it has to be made clear in the introduction part.( Eg:- Not all of the aspects in RLT model will be covered in this discussion because it didn’t came up in the conversation with my client)cdk-8.pdf.aspx?inline=true
