This article explores the experience of caring for a female patient aged 69 years who lived alone after returning home from the hospital with a femoral fracture due to a fall. The nursing period was from October 12 to 15, 2020, and telephone follow-ups were continued until November 13, 2020. On the basis of Gordon's 11 Functional Health Patterns, acute pain, physical activity dysfunction, and anxiety were identified. In addition to providing information regarding comfortable positioning, ice therapy, and using aromatherapy to alleviate her acute pain, we developed rehabilitation and nutrition plans with physical therapists and dietitians from the hospital's interprofessional team and taught the patient how to use their mobile phone to record anxiety events and discuss them with the medical team who provided companionship and listening. We also helped the patient connect with the community medical care system to enable her to smoothly connect with long-term care services after discharge. The patient received holistic care resources to reduce the anxiety involved in self-care when living alone after returning home, enabling her to maintain peace of mind and age in place.
