Case study #2 Agnes live with her husband Bert. Both are over 85 years old. They have lived in the same house for over 50 years. Agnes has recently been discharged home from hospital. She is on a new medication regime to manage her heart condition, Type II diabetes, and the infection in her foot ulcer. You are part of a team providing daily dressing changes. You arrive in the evening to find Bert waiting at the door for you. He tells you that something is wrong with Agnes. Earlier in the day, Agnes had walked to the local grocery store to pick up a few things for supper and got lost on her way home. A neighbour saw her and brought her home. She had not purchased any of the items that she was supposed to buy. When you greet Agnes, you find her confused and agitated. The nurse in the morning did not comment on this in her report. When you ask Agnes about her day, she tells you that she went out for some exercise, was distracted by construction up the road, and missed the entrance to her street. “so silly of me, I just was not paying attention to where I was going”
