Nurses must be vigilant about various indicators to assess recovery effectively. These include:
1. Vital Signs: Monitoring vital signs like heart rate, blood pressure, respiratory rate, and temperature is crucial. 2. Pain Levels: Assessing pain levels using pain scales helps in managing and adjusting pain medication. 3. Wound Healing: Observing the condition of surgical or injury wounds for signs of infection or poor healing. 4. Mobility: Assessing the patient's ability to move and perform daily activities. 5. Mental State: Monitoring cognitive functions and emotional well-being. 6. Nutritional Status: Ensuring the patient is receiving adequate nutrition and hydration.
