Informative articles. In the pre-hospital setting I wasn’t often able to assess a patient as having dementia vs delirium due to a lack of understanding of the differences. With some basic information presented through these articles, I am able to better appreciate both processes as different presenting problems.
Very informative. Enjoyed the articles
