Discharge Planning

 Medications Medications used to treat anorexic include;


 Certain antidepressant medications such as
selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) might
be used to help control anxiety and depression
associated with an eating disorder. Some
antidepressants may also help with sleep and
stimulate appetite. Other types of medications also
might be offered to help control anxiety and/or
distorted attitudes toward eating and body image.
 Environment Encourage the patient to keep active to adhere to exercise
program and to remain self-sufficient as possible make your
environment/around be productive.
 Treatment Treatment most often involves a combination of the
following treatment methods;
 Psychotherapy
 Medication
 Nutrition counseling
 Group and/or family therapy Hospitalization
 Health Teaching Your doctor or dietitian can offer suggestions for improving
your appetite and reducing fatigue. For example, you may
need to change your diet to include more high-calorie,
protein-rich foods, and fewer sugary or empty calorie
options. Taking your food in liquid form such as green
smoothies or protein drinks may be easier on your stomach.
If you have trouble with big meals, you can also try eating
small meals throughout the day to help keep food down.

While fatigue and loss of appetite can’t always be


prevented, living a healthy lifestyle can minimize lifestyle-
related causes of fatigue and appetite loss. You may feel
less fatigued and have more energy if you eat a balanced
diet of fruits, vegetables, and lean meats, exercise
regularly, and sleep for at least seven hours each night.
 Observation/Out-Patient Department The first step toward recovery is to set up a treatment plan
with your doctor. And even if you’re already seeing a
specialist, there are still many things you can do to help
yourself.
 Set Goals You Can Meet
 Practice Smart Eating Habits
 Wear Clothes You Like
 Pamper Yourself
 Ask for Emotional Support
 Help Others
 Give Your Mind a Rest
 Get plenty of sleep at night.
 Diet This strategy is designed to teach a healthy approach to
food and weight, to help restore normal eating patterns, and
to teach the importance of nutrition and following a
balanced diet.
