Psychosocial vital signs & Patient response
Perception
“Pretty good for my age. I’ve got diabetes and chronic renal failure, but a lot of my
mob do. I just got this angina last year but usually it isn’t too bad; the tablets work
well. Bad luck I tripped over that bloody Tonker truck and hurt my hip”.
Support
“I got my wife and my girls at home, and their kids. I’ll be right. I don’t want to put too
much pressure on my youngest daughter, she’s got enough to worry about with that
cancer. We can usually call out to family or friends and they can help me out if I
need. For example, I can’t drive now so I can ask around and someone will usually
be around to come over and give me a lift to town for shopping, Centrelink, banking
or doctors.”
Coping
“Most of the time just sitting down and relaxing and not stressing too much but
sometimes, maybe 2 or 3 nights a week, I sit down and have a few beers.” “When it
is too much I just take off out bush for a while.”
Anxiety/ Level of anxiety
“Yeah a little bit. I don’t want to fall like that again and I don’t want to get another
urine infection; that was no good”
“Level of anxiety right now, medium”.
