Your supervisor needs to make sure that each of the in-service topics will be covered by someone, so she asks the staff to communicate their topic preference. Below is the list of problems your supervisor wants the nursing staff to teach older adult clients (and their family members) about.

Topic:

Dementia

Identify the client problem your in-service will address.

Describe at least five consequences of the client’s problem related to older adults’ health, safety, and well-being.
Explain your rationale for choosing the client problem you selected.
