The document presents a nursing assessment and care plan for a 64-year-old female patient presenting with signs of dehydration such as delayed skin turgor and weakness, with a nursing diagnosis of deficient fluid volume related to vomiting. The plan is to administer IV fluids and replacement medications like cortisone to restore fluid volume and electrolyte balance, monitor vital signs and intake/output, and ensure the patient can maintain adequate hydration and health through diet and lifestyle changes after the intervention period.
