Tutorial
Mr. Johnson is a previously fit, retired 70-year old Afro-Canadian gentleman. His son and daughter-in-law live several hundred miles away in another city and maintain contact with him by telephone. They return home on a Friday evening to surprise him for his birthday and find his apartment in disarray and Mr. Johnson in bed, in too much pain to move. He seems unable to stand independently, though it is hard to tell if this is a result of his overall weakness, or the pain. They call an ambulance and he is taken to the Emergency Department of the local community hospital.
