Week 8 Discussion
Memory Loss
You are the nurse practitioner in family practice. You are seeing a new patient today: a 70-year-old African American woman, Selah, who is accompanied by her daughter, Britt, to the appointment. The PMH of the patient includes HTN, DM, Hyperlipidemia, TIA × 2, and Osteoarthritis of both knees, with multiple falls resulting in two diagnosed concussions. The daughter is concerned because she feels as if her mother’s memory isn’t what it used to be. Britt states that her mother sometimes misplaces things and forgets events, as well as the names of people she has known for a long period of time.
Helpful hint: Don’t forget to ask OLDCARTS for each condition and about medication.
