Second-level priority problems are those that require prompt intervention to prevent further deterioration (e.g., mental status change, acute pain, acute urinary elimination problems, untreated medical problems, abnormal laboratory values, risks of infection, or risk to safety or security).Low self-esteem and knowledge deficit are third-level priority, which will require longer time for treatment and improvement.
