Hi all. I have a question about Alzheimer's pts. I'm currently a student and one of the interests I'm leaning towards in Geriatrics. I've only done a few clinical assignments in LTC facilities and am interested in Alzheimer's patients. Are you able to 'reach' them in anyway--guess this depends on the advanced stage of the disease but for the most part, are they able to acknowledge you and your care, able to be comforted, etc.
Thanks so much for any in put.
Sue :)
