- Does she exhibit common aging changes we discussed in N380 from chapter 5 in your text? If so, please identify.
- What are her co-morbidities?
- Which of the geriatric syndromes does she describe which could be related to her care and why?
- Provide nursing interventions that could be implemented to help Maria related to the geriatric syndrome you identified.
