Sorry all,just had to post this.As some of you may be aware my Dad had the MMSE " weeks ago.The score being16/30.He is very "with it" as we may say,He knows exactly where he is,the time etc.He is not like a resident i am about to descrobe.This resident refers to themselves a a third person all the time.Giving them medication is a task within itself."what do you want ***** to do with them"is what they are like day in day out."where does **** go now?"**** will be eating and ask for food!.i cannot believe their MMSE score was one point higher than dads.This resident has no concept of wherwabouts,day or time.I am unsure that the MMSE is reliable.love elainex
