Your patient is an 87-year-old female brought in by her daughter with a severe laceration on her left foot. The patient is shaking uncontrollably and seems to be afraid of her daughter. The
daughter explains that her mother has dementia, which causes her to become paranoid. She says
the laceration occurred when her mother was trying to help prepare dinner and dropped a sharp
kitchen knife. The patient appears to understand when you explain what you are about to do, and
she helps you roll up the sleeve of her shirt so that you can check her blood pressure. As she rolls
up her sleeve, you notice bruises in various stages of healing. How will you handle this situation?
