Aligning Geriatric Patient Care with Special Patient Types: A Case Study Analysis

The focus of this semester’s reports is the personal patient seen by the student and how they align with the special patient type. Students will include at least two peer-reviewed journal articles; typically these are professional journals and not websites (in addition to your required texts) in APA format, for this assignment. This is a type-written report using the template provided with this assignment.
Example from NIH:
Huang, D. L., Chan, K. C., & Young, B. A. (2013). Poor oral health and quality of life in older U.S. adults with diabetes mellitus. Journal of the American Geriatrics Society, 61(10), 1782–1788. https://doi.org/10.1111/jgs.1245
The summary will include comparisons of what areas are in alignment with a typical geriatric patient AND which areas that are not in alignment.
