Psychosocial Disorders in the Older Population
As a person ages, many physiologic changes occur. Normal degenerative changes happen
that affect many brain functions. As advanced practice registered nurses, it is crucial that they
perform a comprehensive assessment on their elderly patients to be able to create a treatment
plan that will manage their medical conditions effectively. In this paper, the goal is to present a
detailed subjective, objective, assessment, and plan (SOAP) for an older adult with psychosocial
disorders. The paper also aims to reflect learning points from analyzing the psychosocial
disorders, their respective diagnostic studies, and treatment plans. Functional and behavioral
changes in geriatric patients should alert the providers to carefully evaluate potential medical
conditions and create a plan that will preserve or maintain their health and physical well-being.

Assessment
Differential diagnoses:
1. Dementia
Dementia is a medical condition where there is loss of cognition in many cognitive
domains sufficiently severe to disable social and occupational functions of those affected
(Arvanitakis et al., 2019: 2024 – Online Assignment Homework Writing Help Service By Expert Research Writers). Dementia is distinguished by a progressive loss of cognition
and functional ability to perform activities of daily living (Arevalo-Rodriguez et al.,
2015 – Research Paper Writing Help Service). Mrs. Peters showed symptoms of confusion, worse than her baseline, shown by
inability to recognize where she was in her own home, a symptom that may indicate
dementia. Additionally, the patient has dementia in her medical history and takes Aricept.
The MMSE score of 18/30 also confirms this primary diagnosis. Several studies
demonstrate that MMSE is a sensitive test of overt dementia with good inter-rater
reliability (Myrberg et al., 2020). To perform MMSE, 30 questions to test range of daily
mental skills will be asked and a score of 20 to 24 indicates mild dementia, 13 to 20
indicates moderate dementia, and 12 and below suggests severe dementia (Myrberg et al.,
2020). The patient’s MMSE score suggest moderate dementia. Advanced age, recent
memory impairment, and changes in personality – agitation and restlessness, are positive
indicators of dementia.
9
2. Delirium
Delirium is an acute episode of confusion, fluctuating attention, worsening of cognition,
alteration in level of consciousness that results in agitation (Kennedy-Mallone et al.,
2019: 2024 – Online Assignment Homework Writing Help Service By Expert Research Writers). Delirium may be a differential diagnosis for this patient because Mrs. Peter’s acute
episode of worsening confusion occurred two days ago. The patient’s son also reported
that the patient was showing symptoms of agitation which is typical in delirium. Pain,
urinary retention, constipation, dehydration, environmental factors, and polypharmacy are
the possible causes of delirium (Rosen et al., 2015 – Research Paper Writing Help Service). Pain, constipation, and urinary
retention were not reported during the assessment. No signs of dehydration were also
noted. More information should be obtained during assessment to check for
environmental stressors that could contribute to the confusion. The patient is taking
several medications as shown in her medication history; hence, polypharmacy can be
accounted for the patient’s delirium.
3. Alzheimer’s Disease (AD)
AD is type of dementia that is characterized by a progressive loss of episodic memory
and cognitive function, which later causes deficiencies in language and visuospatial
skills, and often accompanied by behavioral disorders such as aggressiveness, apathy, and
depression (Silva et al., 2019: 2024 – Online Assignment Homework Writing Help Service By Expert Research Writers). In assessing Mrs. Peters was reported to have stumbling
and balance issues. This could be an indication of a decline in visuospatial skills,
indicating AD. Agitation and restlessness were also noted with the patient which are
positive indicators associated with AD. Current tests performed does not confirm this
diagnosis, thus, tests to check for biomarkers of cerebrospinal fluid and positron emission
10
tomography in combination with several relatively new clinical criteria can aid in
confirming this diagnosis.
4. Depression
Depression in elderly patients is a common disorder that affect their quality of life. The
condition contributes to adverse functional and social outcomes of the said population.
Acute confusion that was worse than baseline, agitation, and restlessness are positive
indicators for depression. Confusion or attention problems due to depression may also be
attributed to AD, dementia, or other brain disorders (National Institute on Aging, 2020);
thus, it is crucial to rule out depression to determine the primary diagnosis. The Geriatric
Depression Scale is a self-rated questionnaire, available in long form (30 items) and a
short-form version (15 items) for diagnosing depression with a cutoff score of eleven in
the long form and seven points in the short form (Blackburn et al., 2017). The reliability,
however, decreases with increasing cognitive impairment. The said screening tool will be
included in the plan to rule out the diagnosis of depression.
Plan
1. Order additional diagnostic studies.
a. Complete blood count and urinalysis can help rule out infections that may be causing
the changes in cognition.
b. Cerebrospinal fluid analysis will be ordered to rule out any specific infections
affecting the brain.
c. Toxicology screens for drug and alcohol use will also determine if the patient’s
behavior is related to controlled substances.
11
d. Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) can exclude potentially reversible dementia
causes such as hydrocephalus, subdural hematoma, stroke, and intra and extra-axial
tumors (Panegyres et al., 2016: 2024 – Do my homework – Help write my assignment online). The CT scan shows diffuse cerebral atrophy, but MRI
has a higher resolution that can detect more subtle and anatomical and vascular
changes.
e. Repeat Hemoglobin A1C in 3 months. Current result shows inadequate control of
blood sugar which may be contributing to the changes in the patient’s cognitive and
functional skills.
f. Perform Geriatric Depression Scale to determine depression.
2. Therapeutic interventions:
a. Continue Donezepil 10 mg tablet daily. Donezepil, a cholinesterase inhibitor, is the
recommended therapy for mild, moderate, or severe AD dementia (Panegyres et al.,
2016: 2024 – Do my homework – Help write my assignment online).
g. Discontinue Glyburide. A careful evaluation of the patient’s medication history is a
crucial component in the management of delirium, dementia, and AD. The American
Geriatrics Society Beers Criteria identifies medications to avoid in geriatric patients.
The Beers criteria strongly recommends glyburide to be avoided in older adults due to
higher risk of severe prolonged hypoglycemia (Al-Azayzih et al., 2019: 2024 – Online Assignment Homework Writing Help Service By Expert Research Writers).
Hypoglycemia can alter a patient’s level of alertness. A fall in blood sugar can cause
confusion, which was one of Mrs. Peter’s presenting symptoms. Continue Metformin.
b. Continue the rest of her current medications to maintain control of blood pressure and
diabetes.
12
3. Referral for psychiatric evaluation can help determine if delirium, depression or other
mental health condition is contributing to the patient’s symptoms.
4. Education: Health promotion tasks.
a. Proper nutrition to control diabetes and high blood pressure to improve overall health
and reduce risk of worsening neurodegenerative disease.
b. Physical exercise to preserve strength and prevent loss of agility associated with age
and decrease neuropsychiatric symptoms. Less brain atrophy was noted in patients
with AD who had regular exercise (Panegyres et al., 2016: 2024 – Do my homework – Help write my assignment online).
c. Offer availability of influenza vaccine to patient.
d. Full guardianship is required because her impairment in cognitive and functional
abilities puts the patient at risk for wandering, falls or non-compliance to medications.
Establish a safe environment. The patient may need assistance with activities of daily
living.
5. Disposition: Follow up in one week for reevaluation. Perform a repeat MMSE to check
for worsening of dementia or AD. For worsening of symptoms or if new acute symptoms
appear, take patient to the emergency department for evaluation and treatment.
Reflection
Evaluating the case study helped the author analyze the importance of obtaining an
adequate information in performing a SOAP note. Many information was missing in the
subjective and objective assessments that could assist in the creation of the assessment and plan.
The race was not discussed. A recent study discussed that disparities in the prevalence of
dementia was not statistically different for whites, blacks, and Hispanics (Chena &
Zissimopoulosa, 2018: 2024 – Write My Essay For Me | Essay Writing Service For Your Papers Online); however, it is important to note that the combination of socioeconomic
13
and cultural factors can affect the compliance of patients in treatment plans. The immunization
history and information regarding the history of eye exam, colonoscopy, pap smear, and
mammogram were not supplied. Annual health screenings help discover diseases before they
worsen, especially with elderly patients who have greater risks due to comorbidities associated
with advanced age. Adherence to medications is particularly important to the older patients as
well. It is important to know when the patient last took her medications to evaluate compliance
to therapy. Literature showed that poor adherence in medication regimen include patients with
many comorbidities and cognitive impairment (Smaje et al., 2018: 2024 – Write My Essay For Me | Essay Writing Service For Your Papers Online). The patient’s HgbA1c was
elevated and patient showed signs of confusion in her visit. Knowing medication compliance can
determine if the patient’s symptoms were dosage related or a compliance issue to taking her
diabetic and dementia medications. The case study also did not say about Mrs. Peter’s family
history. Although family history is not necessary to develop AD and other dementias, it is
important to note that that when they run in families, genetic factors, environmental factors, or
both may play a role (Panegyres et al., 2016: 2024 – Do my homework – Help write my assignment online). Safety concerns for patients with dementia, AD,
and delirium would include wandering, fall risks, and inability to perform activities of daily
living; thus, the importance of a good support system is vital to ensure their safety.
Conclusion
Psychosocial disorders in the geriatric population is prevalent and proper assessment and
management are necessary to preserve their functional abilities. As advanced practice nurses, it is
important to obtain adequate information to be able to diagnose and treat them appropriately.
With the anatomical changes related to advanced age, mental function changes along with it.
Trying to find solutions on the challenges faced by older patients with advanced medications and
appropriate psychosocial treatment plans will help them live their remaining years comfortable.

1 Psychiatric Disorders in the Elderly

NRNP 6540F Advanced Practice Care of the Elderly

13 Sept 2020
2 Psychosocial Disorders in Seniors
Many physiologic changes occur with age. Normal aging affects several brain functions. To properly manage their senior patients’ medical conditions, advanced practice registered nurses must conduct a thorough assessment. Goal of this paper is to offer a complete SOAP for an older adult with psychosocial issues. The paper will also include key takeaways from examining psychosocial illnesses, diagnostic research, and treatment methods. Changes in aging patients’ functional and behavioral abilities should warn doctors to investigate probable medical issues and devise a plan to preserve or maintain their health.

Assessment
Various diagnoses:
Demencia
Dementia is a medical illness characterized by widespread cognitive loss that impairs social and vocational functions (Arvanitakis et al., 2019: 2024 – Online Assignment Homework Writing Help Service By Expert Research Writers). Dementia is characterized by a progressive loss of cognition and functional capacity (Arevalo-Rodriguez et al., 2015 – Research Paper Writing Help Service). Mrs. Peters had worsened bewilderment, as seen by her inability to know where she was in her own home, a hallmark of dementia. The patient also has dementia and takes Aricept.
18/30 on the MMSE supports this initial diagnosis. MMSE is a sensitive and reliable inter-rater test for dementia (Myrberg et al., 2020). A score of 20-24 denotes mild dementia, 13-20 indicates moderate dementia, and 12 and lower indicates severe dementia (Myrberg et al., 2020). It shows mild dementia on the MMSE. Aging, recent memory loss, and personality changes — agitation and restlessness – are all signs of dementia.
9
2. Daze
Delirium is characterized by agitation, fluctuating attention, impaired cognition, and altered degree of awareness (Kennedy-Mallone et al., 2019: 2024 – Online Assignment Homework Writing Help Service By Expert Research Writers). Mrs. Peter had an acute bout of growing confusion two days ago, suggesting delirium. The patient’s son noticed agitation, which is common in delirium. Dehydration, pain, urine retention, constipation, environmental variables, and polypharmacy can cause delirium (Rosen et al., 2015 – Research Paper Writing Help Service). No complaints of pain, constipation, or urine retention were made. There were no evidence of dehydration. During the examination, look for environmental stresses that may be contributing to the misunderstanding. Polypharmacy can explain for the patient’s delirium as evidenced in her drug history.
3. Alzheimer’s (AD)
Progressive loss of episodic memory and cognitive function produces deficits in language and visual skills, and is commonly accompanied by behavioral disorders such as aggression, apathy, and depression (Silva et al., 2019: 2024 – Online Assignment Homework Writing Help Service By Expert Research Writers). Mrs. Peters was seen to be stumbling and unbalanced. This could be a sign of Alzheimer’s disease (AD). The patient displayed signs of AD such as agitation and restlessness. Testing for cerebrospinal fluid biomarkers and positron emission tomography, along with numerous new clinical criteria, can help confirm this diagnosis.
4. Sadness
Depression is a prevalent illness that affects the elderly’s quality of life. The condition affects the population’s functional and social consequences.
Acute disorientation, agitation, and restlessness are all signs of depression. Depression can cause confusion or attention issues, which can be mistaken for AD, dementia, or other brain disorders (National Institute on Aging, 2020). The Geriatric Depression Scale is a self-report questionnaire with a cutoff score of eleven in the long form and seven in the short form for diagnosing depression (Blackburn et al., 2017). However, the dependability declines with cognitive impairment. The strategy will incorporate the claimed screening technique to rule out depression.
Plan 1: Order further diagnostic tests.
a. A complete blood count and urinalysis can rule out illnesses causing cognitive abnormalities.
b. A CSF analysis will be performed to rule out any brain infections.
It will also identify if the patient’s conduct is due to controlled substances.
11
d. MRI can rule out reversible dementia causes such hydrocephalus, subdural hematoma, stroke, and intra- and extra-axial malignancies (Panegyres et al., 2016: 2024 – Do my homework – Help write my assignment online). Its increased resolution allows it to detect subtle structural and circulatory changes that a CT scan cannot.
f. Retest A1C in 3 months. The patient’s cognitive and functional skills may be deteriorating due to insufficient blood sugar control.
b. Assess depression using the Geriatric Depression Scale.
2. Continue taking Donezepil 10 mg daily. cholinesterase inhibitor donezepil (Panegyres et al., 2016: 2024 – Do my homework – Help write my assignment online).
f. Stop Glyburide. Medication history is critical in the management of delirium, dementia, and Alzheimer’s. The American Geriatrics Society’s Beers Criteria lists drugs to avoid in elderly.
To avoid severe persistent hypoglycemia in elderly persons, the Beers criteria strongly advises against glyburide (Al-Azayzih et al., 2019: 2024 – Online Assignment Homework Writing Help Service By Expert Research Writers).
Hypoglycemia can impair alertness. A drop in blood sugar might create confusion, which Mrs. Peter had. Metformin.
b. Maintain her existing blood pressure and diabetic meds.
12
3. Referral for psychiatric examination can assist diagnose delirium, depression, or other mental health issues.
4. Health promotion tasks:
Controlling diabetes and hypertension improves general health and reduces risk of neurodegenerative disease.
b. Physical activity to maintain strength and agility and reduce neuropsychiatric symptoms. Regular exercise reduced brain atrophy in Alzheimer’s sufferers (Panegyres et al., 2016: 2024 – Do my homework – Help write my assignment online).
d. Inform patient about influenza vaccine.
d. Full guardianship is required since her cognitive and functional impairment puts her at danger for roaming, falls, and medication non-compliance.
Create a safe space. The patient may need help with daily tasks.
5. Disposition: Reevaluate in one week. Repeat the MMSE to assess dementia or AD progression. Take the patient to the ER if symptoms worsen or new symptoms occur.
Reflection
Using the case study, the author learned the value of gathering sufficient information for a SOAP note. The subjective and objective assessments lacked much information that may help create the assessment and plan.
No mention of race. However, it is vital to remember that the mix of socioeconomic and cultural factors can impair patient compliance with treatment programs (Chena et al., 2018: 2024 – Write My Essay For Me | Essay Writing Service For Your Papers Online). The history of immunizations, eye exams, colonoscopies, pap smears, and mammograms were not provided. Annual health screenings help detect diseases early, especially in the elderly, who have higher risks due to age-related comorbidities. Medication adherence is critical for elderly people as well. To assess therapeutic compliance, know when the patient last took her prescriptions. Patients with several comorbidities and cognitive impairment have poor drug adherence (Smaje et al., 2018: 2024 – Write My Essay For Me | Essay Writing Service For Your Papers Online). The patient’s HgbA1c was high and she appeared confused. To find out if the patient’s symptoms were due to dosage or non-compliance with her diabetic and dementia meds. There was no mention of Mrs. Peter’s family history. While a family history of AD or other dementias is not required, it is crucial to highlight that genetic, environmental, or both factors may be involved (Panegyres et al., 2016: 2024 – Do my homework – Help write my assignment online). Wandering, fall risks, and incapacity to conduct everyday chores are all safety problems for persons with dementia, AD, and delirium.
Conclusion
Psychosocial issues in the elderly are common and require thorough assessment and care to maintain functional capacities. As advanced practice nurses, we need to gather enough data to properly diagnose and treat patients.
With the anatomical changes related to advanced age, mental function changes along with it.
Finding answers for elderly patients’ problems using improved drugs and psychosocial treatment plans would help them live more comfortably in their later years.
