Mr. Lipton is an 80-year-old patient admitted to the neuro floor yesterday. He woke up yesterday with new left-sided hemianopsia (cannot see anything on the left side of his vision/body). The MRI shows a new brain tumor in his occipital lobe. He has no other medical history, and he lives at home with his wife, who has moderate dementia. He is scheduled for surgery tomorrow. You receive report and learn that Mr. Lipton is pleasant and cooperative but is not patient and does not wait for the staff to come and help him use the bathroom, which causes the chair and bed alarms to go off frequently. What is your priority concern for this patient after hearing report? Why did you choose that as the priority?
