Gertrude Jenkins is a 74 year old female who has poor eyesight due to glaucoma, has hypertension, endstage renal disease, and the beginnings of vascular dementia. Ms. Jenkins is a widow of 14 years, lives 
alone in a major urban city on the East coast, is unable to drive independently, does enjoy an active 
social life when friends can pick her up, and enjoys once a month visits with her oldest daughter, who is 
a custodian at an elementary school. Ms. Jenkins reports to taking beta-blockers for her hypertension 
and glaucoma, seeing the ophthalmologist once a year, and is also on diuretics (water pills, she called 
them) and other medication to aid her kidneys. She doesn’t recall her medications and/or the dosing 
schedule and reports to forgetting doses and then doubling up when she remembers to take the 
medication. She also reports to an unwillingness to follow through on her blood chemistry work due to 
the inconvenience of arranging for transportation.
