Specific guidelines will be implemented to minimizing the risk of infections caused by surgical instruments, blood or surgical operations.
Goal VI: Illness, for some patients, brings immense anxiety, lingering sense of uncertainty and despair due to which they become hopeless and look for different ways to get rid of their pains. Some might consider self-induced death as a channel to free themselves from physical and emotional burdens (Wilson, 2000). Such patients might have strong tendency for suicide, which will be identified and counseled.
