There are TWO discussion board questions with TWO different due dates. The discussion board questions DO NOT require a cover page, headings, page numbering, or abstract….just answer the questions in their entirety—free from grammatical errors and professional writing.
Question #1: Describe the elements of a comprehensive health assessment of a geriatric patient. What special considerations should the nurse keep in mind while performing this assessment?

Question #2: End-of-life care becomes an issue at some point for elderly clients. Even with the emergence of palliative care programs and hospice programs, the majority of elderly people do not die in their own home as is their preference. What are the reasons for this trend? Discuss what you can do as a nurse to support your clients in end-of-life care and in supporting their desires. Support your response with evidence-based literature.
