What could possibly be happening?

She's talked to his PCP to try and get him some meds to maybe help with his moods but he became suspicious and decided not to take them. She has a feeling that it's dementia but doesn't now know for sure. She's tried reaching out to support groups but since he's gotten worse, she hasn't had many opportunities. I will have to do some research on care facilities that specialize in psychiatric care and diagnosis.

@cwang21 what a difficult situation but not uncommon. Is there a senior care organization near you that can give info and referrals? As someone else said, it may require an ambulance. They system seems to depend on waiting for something awful to happen to justify intervention. Do any docs do home visits?
