As we lead up to WDAD, NSMSGS will be sharing resources to bring awareness to Delirium in older adults. Consider how you might participate. Visit deliriumday.com for more information.

Delirium is a Medical Emergency. Take immediate action if you believe someone you are supporting is in a delirium.

Delirium can often be prevented- it’s important to be aware of the modifiable risk factors. Refer to the SF7 Toolkit through RGP Toronto for more information. rgptoronto.ca/wp-content/upl…

Delirium can present in different ways. There are three types of delirium: HYPERACTIVE (restless, agitated), HYPOACTIVE (drowsy, lethargic) and MIXED. To learn more about the subtypes of delirium, you may refer to this visual summary by BMJ bmj.com/content/bmj/su…

There are several key signs and symptoms of delirium. Commonly used screening tools within the NSM Region include the Confusion Assessment Method; The Delirium Triage Screen and The 4AT. Tell us in the comments what you use to screen for Delirium.

An older adult with delirium is confused, may have hallucinations, and can be frightened by the experience. RGP Toronto offers the following tips to support communication: Stay Calm, Maintain Eye Contact, Introduce Yourself, Listen Actively, and Engage and Empathize.

World Delirium Awareness Day 2025 is here! Don’t forget to tag NSMSGS in your social media posts #WDAD2025 and #NSMSGS about the day. And consider sending your photos/stories that we can include to [email protected] with the subject line #WDAD2025.
