This is an 89-year-old, was transferred here from Vidant Medical Center in Greenville, North Carolina on 01/21, for a multitude of problems including altered mental status. The patient can communicate but not well enough to really give a history. I have obtained all this history from her daughter Cynthia who works here at Mayview. I am told that Mamie was born in Edgecombe County right outside of Tarboro and she lived the majority of her life in those areas of Edgecombe County, Pitt County, and Martin County. She got married at the age of 19, and had 13 children. Three of the oldest children have died. Cynthia lives here in Raleigh and her sister Brenda works in Raleigh, but lives in Clayton.

The client is a Hispanic Male age 69, who was born in the Dominican Republic. The client communicates solely in Spanish. He has two daughters who both live in the Bronx. The client suffers from Diabetes, Cholesterol and moderate Dementia. The client has shakiness in the hands as a result of a surgery he endured in the brain. The client lives in a rented room in Inwood Heights. Initially, the clients presenting problem included finding adequate housing however, after completing the intake form I became aware that the client was over income for most housing assistance programs. When the client and I talked more about the reasons he wanted to find housing it became obvious that the client wants to feel valued by his children. Also the client mentioned wanting to overcome feelings of loneliness and isolation. The client copes with feelings of seclusion and solitude by coming everyday to the senior center. He also tends to use the defense mechanism rationalization and tries to rationalize behaviors for others including his daughter’s absence from his life. My interpretation of the clients functioning in the situation is that although the client is experiencing health impairments and sadness the client is very self-sufficient. He is capable and able to take care of his hygiene, he is able to feed himself and he is able to go to doctor’s appointments on his own. I do however; think he is in need of case management and emotional support.
