Q1: I would refer Eve to Dementia Nursing Team, Physiotherapist, Occupational Therapist and consider carers. This multidisciplinary team would be able to support Eve to reduce her falls risk through interventions such as strength training and making her home environment safe. They would also be able to support eves family to help them give eve all of the support she needs.
Q2: Eve should be making the final decisions about her care as she has insight. Furthermore her son and daughter do not have power of attorney so cannot make decisions about her care without Eves consent.
Q3: this is not good as it is causing more harm. For example not having access to her kitchen could have lead to Eve being dehydrated and then getting a UTI. It is also negatively impacting on eves quality of life.
Q4: it was very confusing listening to the message on Eves telephone. The words were all jumbled and the sentences didn’t make sense. I think the message was about a missed appointment and getting some pasta for dinner. If i was eve i would be feeling very confused and worried as i wouldn’t know what was going on.
