First and Second Level of Assessment Inadequate Living Space

The family is experiencing inadequate living space to meet its size of 4 or more members, who all sleep in one room along with the kitchen and dining table. This presents a health threat due to lack of adequate space and ventilation. The family's resources are insufficient to provide proper living space for all its members due to prioritizing other needs. However, the nurse's resources like health teachings and advice can help promote changes, though a complete resolution of the problem may not be possible due to the family's limited financial resources.
