- Ertha has Dementia which is a neurologic disorder that affects ones memory, thinking, and behavior. It can even affect fine motor skills causing loss of balance or ones ability to perform ADL’s. Ertha is no longer in her familiar home which is adding to her anxiety and could be making her dementia worse. She may forget to take medication or take it more than once due to poor memory. Key nursing considerations would be to have a CNA help assist with ADL’s and report back to Nurse if Ertha isn’t willing to comply with help.

The patient is not drooling and seems to be swallowing easily. You do not see any evidence of respiratory distress or an inability to protect his airway.
