"Nurse was very attentive"

About: Dementia and Older Persons Mental Health / Camel Memory Assessment Team

(as a staff member posting for a patient/service user),

I requested a referral to the Memory Assessment clinic because I suspected something wasn’t quite right, and we believed it might be mild dementia. Although I felt a bit nervous at first, I quickly settled in to answering the questions.

During the assessment, I did feel flustered at times, as the process became a bit overwhelming. However, the nurse was very attentive and made sure nothing was rushed, allowing plenty of time to address any errors.

Overall, it was an easy process. Since my appointment at the beginning of June, I haven't heard anything from any medical professionals, but I have undergone a CT scan and am now waiting for the results.
