Lorraine Terrance, an 83-year-old widow who has lived alone since her husband died 6 months ago, is in the early stages of Alzheimer’s disease. She has a history of cardiovascular disease and hypertension and has been admitted to the local hospital for observation after complaints of chest pain. At present, she is very anxious and agitated. The admitting nurse received a telephone call from Mrs. Terrence’s daughter, who lives out of town. The daughter states that her mother has experienced anxiety and depression for many years and her symptoms have worsened since her father died.

The provider orders the following medications: Alprazolam (Xanax) for anxiety, Citalopram (celexa) for depression, and Zolpidem (Ambien) for sleep.

Mrs. Terrence’s two sons come to visit her in the hospital. They complain to the nurse that their mother seems oversedated. In denial about her mental status, the sons request that their mother’s medication be discontinued, but the nurses are concerned that if she is agitated, she may pull out her IV lines and Foley catheter as well as possibility strike out at staff.
