Hip Fracture With Resistance to Care

Mrs. B is a 100-year-old white female with a history of dementia, squamous cell carcinoma to the bilateral lower extremities, and venous insufficiency. She is no longer able to verbally express her opinions or desires, although she recognizes familiar faces and engages with others. She requires minimal assistance with transfers and ambulates with a front-wheeled walker. She is resistant and combative with care (usually hitting staff), especially during dressing, bathing, and transferring.
