Disorientation Evaluation

The second case is a firefighter with apparent disorientation, best handled as altered mental status until a cause is supported.

The episode summary says a female firefighter who appears disoriented is brought to Holt Neuro for evaluation.

Clinicians first ask whether the patient is unsafe, hypoxic, hypoglycemic, infected, intoxicated, injured, or having a neurologic event.

The summary supports disorientation and neurologic evaluation, but does not name vitals, exposures, injury, imaging, labs, or final diagnosis.

Real care depends on stabilizing airway/breathing/circulation if needed, checking glucose and vitals, examining neurologic status, and targeting tests to the likely cause.
