Reflections

The elderly assessment tool is quite a challenging assessment in my opinion as it


deals with personal and sensitive topics, you have to make the questions appropriate.
_______________________________________________________________________________
Also geriatric patients are by no means easy patients to handle, with aging comes
_______________________________________________________________________________
being short-tempered, getting tired easily, easily gets sensitive and agitated.
_______________________________________________________________________________
So it's important to be very cautious around them without making them uncomfortable.
_______________________________________________________________________________
_______________________________________________________________________________
As for my patient, she is very cooperative and enthusiastic about the whole procedure
even though she got a little emotional, she was still able to compose herself.
_______________________________________________________________________________
_______________________________________________________________________________
Geriatric patient also tends to be very enthusiastic when it comes to telling stories.
_______________________________________________________________________________
Overall this experience was able to challenge me in my social and observation skills.
_______________________________________________________________________________
It also gave me the opportunity to actually check on the health status of my grandma, very
pleased with the results.
