Case Study
\nYou are with your preceptor, Dr. Mark Parr, in clinicals. One of the people you see today is Rose Lee Strom, a 73-year-old woman. Rose Lee was brought in for a psychological Assessment by her brother Robert Chang because of a three-year history of memory impairment. Rose Lee completed high school and then worked in a clerical position until her retirement in 1997. Since the death of her husband in 2005, she has lived alone and maintained her own home and financial affairs.
\nRobert has noticed that Rose Lee has a gradually worsening memory impairment and has difficulty finding words, but Rose Lee became angry at the suggestion that she may have a progressive impairment. Robert says that other family members and friends have noted a decline in her housekeeping and financial affairs, but Rose Lee herself has no complaints.
\nElevated arterial blood pressure was documented on several occasions, but Rose Lee never took medication. She has no children and had a hysterectomy in her thirties. She is a well-groomed woman who is alert and friendly. General and elemental neurological exams are normal.
\nAbout five minutes after coming in, having already greeted everyone and exchanged names, your preceptor asks Rose Lee to state her name and age.
\nWatch the video of your preceptor\u2019s conversation with Rose Lee (2:02 minutes), paying close attention to Rose Lee\u2019s speech patterns.
