Provincial Geriatrics Leadership Ontario has been pleased to partner with Ontario Health in the development of the Delirium Quality Standard, released today.
Delirium is often a complication of respiratory illnesses, such as pneumonia, in older adults. Early studies indicate between 20% and 30% of people with COVID-19 will present with or develop delirium or mental status changes during hospitalization.
- Download this standard to learn what quality care looks like.
- Share this guide with patients to help them ask informed questions about their care.
We invite you to share this quality standard (and its accompanying materials) within your network.
This quality standard and materials were developed by Ontario Health and Provincial Geriatrics Leadership Ontario. For more information contact OH-HQO_QualityStandards@ontariohealth.ca
