M.E. is a 66-year-old woman who has a 5-year history of
progressive forgetfulness. After a neurologic evaluation, M.E. was
diagnosed as having Alzheimer's disease (AD). She is no longer able
to care for herself, has become increasingly depressed and
paranoid, and recently started a fire in the kitchen. Her husband
and children have come to the Alzheimer's unit at your extended
care facility to seek information about AD and discuss the
possibility of placement for M.E. You assure the family that you
have experience dealing with the questions and concerns of most
people in their situation.
You try to comfort the family by telling them that the problems
that they are experiencing are common. You explain that family
support is a major focus of your program.
QUESTION: List four ways that M.E family might receive the
support they need.
