In this scenario, students will provide postpartum care for Carmen Garza-Valdez, a 32-year-old female who was admitted to the hospital following a motor vehicle accident that resulted in a left arm radial fracture and a primary cesarean section due to placental abruption. Her newborn was diagnosed with hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy and admitted to the NICU. Carmen has signaled for assistance with questions about her incision. Students are to implement postpartum orders and communicate effectively with Carmen, addressing her concerns. This scenario includes the use of a simulated EHR and offers an optional challenge of communicating with a patient who only speaks Spanish.
