   You need to addres the reason behind the hypotension. Is it drug induced by anti HTN meds? Or is it from dehydration, N/V, etc. Is the patient orthostatic and high risk for falls? One care plan would be high risk for falls AEB unstable gait secondary to hypotension. Or fluid volume deficit R/T inadequate fluid intake AEB deficit low blood pressure and dry skin and mucous membranes http://www.rncentral.com/careplans/plans/fvd.html http://www1.us.elsevierhealth.com/MERLIN/Gulanick/Constructor/index.cfm?plan=21
