本文探討一位外籍勞工創傷性腦損傷術後之護理經驗,照護期間自2019年12月19日至2019年12月30日,筆者運用Gordon十一項功能健康型態進行身體評估,藉由觀察、會談及病歷調閱確立有顱內調適能力降低、身體活動功能障礙、焦慮等健康問題。護理過程透過主動關懷以建立信任關係,鼓勵表達感受,與案友協助翻譯說明治療過程,給予個別性護理措施,密切觀察生命徵象及神經學反應,預防續發性腦損傷;與醫療團隊共同擬定復健計畫並協助執行,給予鼓勵及正向支持增加自信心促進自主運動意願,提升自我照護能力,儘早恢復原有生活;考量個案於治療過程面臨溝通難題,以圖卡與翻譯軟體克服障礙,會同社工及雇主解決因暫時失能導致的經濟社會問題,藉由視訊軟體聯繫印尼家人提升家庭支持系統,降低個案焦慮。希望藉由此護理經驗分享,提供日後醫護人員照顧外籍人士之參酌。
