Full description Delirium is a common, frightening and costly hospital complication that causes confusion and negative outcomes for older Australian adults and their family carers. Despite being preventable, delirium assessment and recognition in clinical practice is poor. We aim to focus on the nurse-carer partnership, supported by a Prevention & Early Delirium Identification Carer Toolkit (PREDICT) to reduce delirium incidence and associated hospital costs, and drive systemic change in delirium management.
