1.2123 Nursing/Economics: Issues Relating To The Treatment Of Alzheimer's Disease.
The topic this study is Alzheimer's disease, especially issues related to the treatment of this particular disease. Alzheimer's disease is not only a chronic, debilitating and progressive disorder, but it is also one that is expected to escalate on account of the aging of the population. When one adds the fact that there currently is no cure for the disease, and that total care is required for people who are in the final stages, then one is left with perhaps one of the most significant health issues in our society. Also, the fact that care giving is such an important aspect of treatment, one is faced with the effects that are experienced by caregivers. This final point makes the topic of profound interest to the author on account of the author's own involvement in care giving. 6 pgs. 7 f/c. 6b.

The primary source is an interview with a geriatrics specialist. The paper concludes that nursing homes would be much better places if the patient-for-profit mentality was not so widespread, and if adult children were more willing to take in their elderly relatives. 4 pgs. Bibliography lists 1 source.
