This aged care nursing module focuses on the identification and management of influenza in non-hospital settings, such as residential aged care facilities and community care homes.
This module provides a description of influenza, details the signs and symptoms, and discusses the medical management and nursing interventions. It also provides an overview of the complications of influenza and effective control strategies to reduce its transmission between residents.
Due to their age, chronic illnesses and shared living arrangements, residents in aged care facilities and community homes are highly susceptible to respiratory infections and at greater risk of death due to influenza and pneumonia.
Influenza is a viral infection that is far more severe than a common cold. It is characterised by the sudden onset of symptoms which may include fever, shortness of breath, sore throat, muscle aches, and headaches. Older people are also at risk of increased confusion and deterioration of chronic medical conditions.
The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.
A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!
Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.
