write a case study for As a first-year nursing student in an aged care facility, you are assigned to care for Mrs Thompson, an 80-year-old resident. Mrs Thompson has been residing in the facility for the past six months due to an inability to care for herself at home, poor appetite and mild short term memory loss. When you go to assist Mrs Thompson with her morning hygiene, she complains to you about pain in her sacral region, where you notice a reddened area while changing her continence pad. The reddened area on Mrs Thompson’s sacrum is approximately 3 centimetres in diameter, with no breaks in the skin. Resident Background: Mrs Thompson is a widow and has two adult children who live in another state. She dislikes being alone in her room so prefers to spend most of her day in the communal lounge room with the other residents. Mrs Thompson has a history of urinary incontinence and osteoarthritis, which causes discomfort and pain when she attempts to stand or walk. This causes limitations to her mobility, resulting in prolonged periods of sitting in her wheelchair during the day.”
