nr526 week 5 discussion May 2018

You and your students have been assigned to the rehabilitation center in Seneca and you have assigned Mr. Gibson to your student, June. This is your opportunity to help your student with a complex topic related to the 3 Ps. Based on the potential for either delirium or dementia in Mr. Gibson, devise and share a table that illustrates the difference between delirium and dementia. Then describe (1) why Mr. Gibson might be vulnerable to both delirium or dementia and (2) what assessments or factors you would use to determine which condition is occurring.

Hint: develop your table first in MS Word and then copy it into the discussion. This will be easier than trying to construct a table in the textbox.
