Question Answered step-by-step Case Study: Cognitive Disorders1.Johnis a 74-year-old man diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease. His wife has been caring for him at home as his disease process progresses. She sought help with his care when he began to nap during the day and stay awake all night wandering around the house. John becomes confused and often does not remember how to get to the bathroom or where to find common items, such as his clothes. On these occasions, he becomes uncharacteristically agitated and responds by verbally abusing her. Grooming, dressing, and simple toileting have become stressful issues. His wife is struggling with how quickly the disease process is progressing so quickly. The couple’s two sons can provide little support because they live hundreds of miles away. One son reports that he “can’t believe dad is as confused as mom thinks he is.” John’s wife, having no support to care for her husband, has decided to admit him to a nursing home for care while she continues to work.
