Disease, Disability and Cognitive Function
Disease, Disability, and Cognitive Function
Imagine that you have been asked to address a support group for family members who are primary caregivers for older adults. The group wants you to speak on the effect acute and chronic diseases have on cognitive function and personality. While you are expected to approach the topic from a scholarly perspective, you know that your audience will be quite varied in terms of medical knowledge, so you want to present the material from the perspective of an intelligent non-expert.
Post an overview of your presentation to the support group, being sure to support your points with appropriately cited references. This is similar to presenting at a round table event, so a PowerPoint is not necessary.
Please remember, this is discussion, but it is scholarly discussion. As such, your posts need to reflect having read and applied the course material. Your discussion posts (initial and peer response posts) should contain in-text citations and a reference list, and follow APA style and format.
