Cognitive impairment can be caused by a variety of conditions, commonly Alzheimer's Disease, multi-infarct dementia, and post-traumatic brain injury. This program describes how symptomatic conditions such as impaired awareness, memory, mood, and judgment affect providing care. Specific strategies for providing care to patients with dementia are demonstrated in an acute care setting, and the assessment of critical areas is discussed including: communication, patient comfort, daily caregiving issues, discharge planning, and follow up |
