Dementia is a heart breaking disease that does away with the very essence of who someone is. In year’s past, dementia would have simply been described as senility and was often thought of as simply part of getting older. However, dementia education has come a long way and doctors now understand that dementia is really an overarching term that covers several types of disorders, and that each type presents its own set of symptoms. Types of Dementia: Alzheimer’s Disease: This is the most common
1.1 What is Dementia? Dementia is a disease where the brain is damaged by a sequence of disease such as Alzheimer’s Disease or a sequence of strokes the brain loses its capability to function correctly and causes severe damage to the brain(Harwood & McCulloch 2014).The loss of function to the brain and changes in the brain affect memory, the person’s mood and their behaviour and also their ability to communicate .There are five different types of dementia which are as follows Alzheimer’s disease
This report will discuss the care required for a patient with Alzheimer’s disease. Alzheimer’s disease is one of the common causes of dementia, it is a disease that causes symptoms such as memory loss and interferes with a person’s intellectual abilities, making it very difficult to perform simple daily tasks. Alzheimer’s disease is a progressive disease, the symptoms are not as noticeable at the beginning but get a lot worse as time goes on. (1) Out of the 5.4 million people in America living with
In science, methodologies are the cornerstone. Without a rigorous and well defined experimental methodology, replicating results would be impossible. However, at the root of scientific methodology there exists a logical problem between the inductive method and the hypothetico-deductive approach. This essay will focus on how these two approaches have connected histories to one another, discuss the problems of using inductive inference and how the hypothetico-deductive approach does not solve the problems
for a dietitian to have a good observation. This is because a dietitian not only focus on the patient but also the community. The dietitian must observe what is going on to the community and environment. For example, Ms Wong has observed that most of the children nowadays do not have proper meal intake and they used to have the soft drink with them when having their meal which have led them to suffer from obese especially those live in KL area. From the observation, we can know that the factors that
Observation Paper #2 On 02/14/2018, I observed a toddler classroom at Eden Palms, Kidango. At nine thirty, there are four children at the table with two teachers. Jesus puts both his hand into a basket of Legos, he touches and looks at different colors of Legos. He does not communicate with his peer. Litzy stands next to him, and she gets one by one Lego to stack them on the top of another Lego. Santiago sits on the chair next to table that has Legos, he positions his hands on the table. He holds
OBSERVATION #5: How does the child socialize? 1) Please observe for a minimum of 45 minutes and write down all of what you are seeing and hearing as the child engages with others: 14:00 The lesson of the Russian language began. The teacher asks the children what they went through at the last lesson. The answer of the children is "division into syllables". The teacher resembles the rules of division into syllables. Kiril sits at the desk with Sofia, participates with the children in the oral pronunciation
Question 2 v1.0 THEORY OF KNOWLEDGE Assess the advantages and disadvantages of using models to produce knowledge of the world. Models are used widely in a diverse array of knowledge areas including both the natural sciences and human sciences for a dual-pronged purpose. The first is to explain the cause-effect relationships underlying the observable phenomenon and the second is to predict future behaviour based on fundamental principles that explain the observable. These two propagated outcomes
For observational research it is important that the people do not know that they are being watched, because if they do they will act differently than how they normally would. One thing that can help is if you just make sure that they are you in line of sight so you are looking in their direction for at least a short period of time. One other thing that will help is if you pick someone to observe who would never expect you to be observing them and taking notes. For me i picked someone that was close
of a planet outside our solar system, 51 Pegasi. ‘After the discovery of 51 Peg everyone wondered if it was a freak, a one in a million observation,’ Marcy said. ‘The answer is no. Planets aren't rare after all. These new discoveries are important because they spawn a new subfield of astrophysics, the study of planetary systems,’”(Sanders 2). With the observation and discovery of exoplanets, scientists and astronomers will now have the tools and resources to search for more life. While the planets
