Question: Grandmother Eunice is an 85-year-old woman living in a four-bedroom home that she shared with her husband who died several years ago. She had three children who passed away in a tragic road accident a few years ago and has been alone since then. At this time, she can no longer take care of herself.
Recently, Grandmother Eunice has wandered from home. She ran out of her medications and was having trouble refilling them. The social workers assigned to her for monthly visits are not offering any meaningful help. A few days ago, Grandmother Eunice was robbed of her groceries and funds because she forgot to lock her door that night. Life is becoming too dangerous for her, and she needs help with her activities of daily living (ADLs) and instrumental activities of daily living (IADLs) to keep her safe. From your experience about long-term care and Grandmother Eunice''s condition, prepare a comprehensive, personalized resident care plan to meet her needs.
