Scenario
Part of the job responsibilities of a medical-surgical unit manager includes chart audits.
A trend noted during the most recent audit was overusing the term “dementia.” The nurse manager notes that there may be a lack of understanding of the types of dementia related to neurological diseases.
The nurse manager developed a survey to evaluate the staff’s understanding of chronic neurological disorders. As a result of the survey, you have been asked to create a PowerPoint presentation to increase nurses’ awareness of chronic neurological disorders. Your presentation needs to be informative but creative and engaging. Remember, you are teaching this information to your colleagues. Is this a presentation you would want to sit through for an in-service? Do not just copy and paste data from your textbook or the internet.

The topic is :Parkinson’s disease 
Pathophysiology- What is it? What is happening in the body to cause it?
