Abstract
With attentive medical management, the elderly demented patient can live in greater comfort, dignity and independence. Errors in supervision can result in drug intoxication, misdiagnoses, and personal neglect. Many of the elderly have a chronic dementing illness, and disability often is accelerated by complications. However, some of these complications are treatable. Case histories are presented to illustrate pitfalls in the care of such patients.
