Spinal cord injuries often lead to decubitus ulcers due to paralysis or lying in bed for extended periods. This essay discusses the case of a 49-year-old female with SCI who was assessed according to Gordon's framework of Eleven Health Functions during her treatment. The health problems confronting this patient included impaired tissue integrity, body image disturbance, and powerlessness. With solicitude, empathy and acceptance, therapists are better able to establish good nurse-patient interactions to facilitate a nursing program. In addition to providing physical care, the nursing staff ought to play the role of supporters and listeners, guiding patients with SCI to confess their fears and worries. Moreover, it is very important to aid individuals with SCI to understand and confront the changes in their bodies. Delivering emotional support and assistance for overcoming the impact of disease is necessary to encourage people with SCI to undergo therapy and improve their quality of life.
