You have done a great job in being comprehensive here! To make it more meaningful to me, I amended the following:
1) Asking about chewing and swallowing–because of dental and denture issues as well as presbyesophagus .
2) Home modifications for safety, i.e. grab bars, shower bench, hand rails, raised toilet seat, etc
3) General home assessment to Reduce Risk of falls (typically done by home P.T. on first eval.)
Thanks
4)Immunizations: dT instead of just T as diphtheria is on the rise
5) Smoking (now) yes or no. Number of pack years_____
6)Own a “Reacher/Grabber” device?
6) Pneumococcal: date or year
