Confused/agitated: maximal assistance - Non-purposeful movement - Can perform motor activities (sitting, reaching, walking) - Hitting, foul behavior, yelling, restlessness, decreased attention span - No short-term memory Use familiar, simple tasks the patient enjoys doing - washing hands - catching object Redirect if agitated Ignore inappropriate commentary Do not force pt. to do activities Low stimulation

Confused, inappropriate non-agitated: maximal assistance - Impaired recent memory - Unable to learn new information - Able to follow simple commands with external cues/assistance - May get stuck on basic needs (going home, going to sleep, etc.) - May be able to perform previously learned tasks when structured. External cues and structure! Keep conversations brief, correct misinformation and move on Change subject if patient becomes argumentative.

Confused appropriate: moderate assistance - Emergence from PTA - Memory is improving but still requires assist - Focal deficits become apparent (L vs R sided weaknesses) - decreased problem-solving ability - can perform familiar tasks in non-distracting environment w/ modA-SUP - unaware of safety risks Consistently follows simple directions Rapid, exaggerated changes in mood with strong emotions/feelings

Automatic, appropriate: minimal assistance for ADLs - A&Ox4 - Able to perform familiar tasks w/ minA - Initiates routine w/ decreased recall - Minimal supervision for safety w/in routine activities - Unable to think about consequences of decision - overestimates abilities - MinA w/ carry over of new learning

Purposeful, appropriate: SBA - completes familiar tasks in distracting environment - uses of assistive memory devices w/ SBA - IND w/ learned activities - Overestimates or underestimates abilities - Understands consequences of actions w/ minA - improved organization Depressed, irritable, easily frustrated, argumentative

Purposeful, appropriate: SBA on request - initiates and carries out familiar tasks SBA on request - SBA to adjust to task demands Depressed, easily irritable, easily frustrated
