SUMMARY INTERVIEW:
Our Interview started around Oct. 19 2020 and ended at Oct 22 2020. My client was a relative
of mine so the interview went smoothly since we were quite close. She is a 65 year old lady
who is living with us at the moment. The interview would start around 10:30 am since she has
finished all her morning activities by that time I would always ask her how she is feeling and
was her morning bearable since she feels lonely from time to time. I always try to cheer her up
with a compliment. During the interview, She always answers the questions honestly and
doesn’t hesitate to ask questions that she doesn’t understand. I would also try my best to
translate the question in tagalog because she always has a hard time conversing in English.
After the interview I would take her vital signs for each day to determine if there are any
significant changes during the 4 day care plan I conducted for her and so far there has been
slight changes with her vital signs and has a significant understanding about her disorder.
