Equipment suppliers who are involved in the process of providing wheelchairs and seating components to individuals who have suffered a spinal cord injury (SCI) should understand the anatomy and physiology of SCI, as well as what to expect at each level of injury. As part of the central nervous system (CNS), the spinal cord (SC) is comprised of delicate tracts of nerve tissue originating in the brain. As it emerges from the base of the skull and extends down the back, it is encircled and protected by the bones (vertebrae) of the spinal column.

My son and I went head to head for two games of Shuffleboard on our kitchen hardwood floor the other day. He obliterated me the first game, but I came back and won the second. Both of us were pleased! Like most games, scorekeeping is required. Shuffleboard’s “10 OFF” box means that players won’t just have to add the points from each round, but they’ll have to subtract too! This was loads of fun and a subtle way to slip in some addition and subtraction practice. I made the shuffleboard court with blue painters tape. The pucks (or biscuits) were large metal closet door pulls (they were being clearanced out at our local hardware store). To distinguish which pucks where whose, I cut some circles of craft foam and placed them inside the pulls, attaching them with a piece of double-sided tape. Don’t want to buy your pucks? Start saving lids (e.g. spaghetti sauce jar lids, peanut butter jar lids, etc.). You just need six of the same size. For our paddle, I used the swiffer mop. It worked like a charm. I put a line on the floor five feet back from the point of the board for my son and I to stand behind. A homemade scorecard helped to keep track of the points. (Download it here.) Rules of play (for our variation of Shuffleboard) Play alternates between two players. Each player stands behind a line and pushes the puck with the swiffer toward the shuffleboard. If the puck is inside any part of the board’s triangle, points are earned. If the puck lands at the end of the board in the “10 OFF” area, the player must subtract 10 points from their score. The opponent can knock a player’s puck off the board with their own. The first player to get to 45 points is the winner! (The traditional game is played until 75 points are earned; the scorecard I made has lots of rounds to account for extended play.)

To provide optimal care, the approach to psychiatric evaluation and diagnosis in older adults requires special attention to several issues. There are important biological, psychological, and social changes associated with either aging itself or with generational differences. In this review, we will address some of the most important aspects of assessment and diagnosis that make geriatric psychiatry a unique subspecialty, including age-related variability in the clinical presentation of common psychiatric disorders, assessment and diagnosis of cognitive disorders and medical comorbidity, and common psychosocial challenges faced by older adults. Although geriatric psychiatrists are uniquely positioned to address the complexities of psychiatric illness in older adults, the fact remains that the majority of older adults who seek psychiatric care will see general adult psychiatrists without subspecialty training. However, with continued vigilance to the issues outlined below, psychiatrists from a variety of training backgrounds can skillfully assess and diagnose psychiatric illnesses in older adults.
