An 85-Year-Old Widow Who Lives Alone Has Fallen Several Times

An 85-year-old widow who lives alone has fallen several times in the last month and has been noted by her children to be confused about her medications and to frequently "forget" what is cooking on the stove until it is burned. These observations indicate that:

A) she needs to be hospitalized to determine the cause of her confusion and falls.
B) home delivery of a hot meal every day would solve her cooking risk.
C) nursing home placement would be the best solution to her problems of aging.
D) further assessment is needed to evaluate an increased level of assistance.
