Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The goal/outcome for Impaired Memory related to fluid and electrolyte imbalances should focus on helping the patient to manage their memory loss, such as through the use of techniques and tools to aid in recall. Checking medication for mind-altering side effects, drinking fluids, and taking electrolyte supplements may be important interventions, but they do not address the nursing diagnosis directly or specifically target memory impairment.
