Your client has Parkinson’s disease. He tries to administer his own oral medication. His wife, who usually helps him, is often not home for his afternoon dose because your visit is her respite time.
1) In your own words, explain the main problem/challenge faced in this situation.
The main problem/challenge in this situation is that the client with Parkinson's disease is unable to independently administer his own oral medication during his wife's absence. His wife is usually the one who helps him, but she is not at home for his afternoon dose, as that is her respite time. This poses a difficulty for the client in managing his medication regimen effectively.
