As a nurse, it is important to encourage patients to come back for regular check-ups and keep the medical team informed on the progression of their disease. This allows for safer treatment options and keep the patient in a better state of health for longer. Nurses need to keep track of how the disease progresses over time, which means that behavioral and cognitive tests should be done on a regular basis to establish this trend. It is also important to include both the patient and their family members/caregivers in the process to get a full picture of the patient's progression.
