Content preview
Mrs. Janet Riley is a 79-year-old Caucasian female withprogressive cognitive and memory deficits, emotional
lability and behavioral changes for about 3 to 4 years now,
especially the last few months those symptoms have been
worst. Mrs. Riley has been noted that she is unable to
complete her activities of daily living, and lack of interest in
previous activities and friends. She also mixes up words,
forget names of familiar people, and gets angry when help is
offered. For her memory loss and confusion, medication
such as cholinesterase inhibitors can be prescribed.
However, safety issue is the most concern for Mrs. Riley,
and prevention is the key (National Institute of Aging, 2017).
The National Instute of Aging (2017) suggested that smoke
and carbon monoxide detectors should be installed in or
near the kitchen and all bedroom, also all phone numbers,
include 911, poison control, hospital, PCP, and more, should
be displayed next to phones or anywhere easy to see around
