First of all after, reality check, having worked in the respiratory field for 20 years in both acute and sub acute facilities, I can tell you it would not be the nursing staff taking a patient to the ER. They would call either an ambulance or the EMTs depending on how ill the patient was. Second of all, what does it matter that he has Alzheimer's? Learn to sort out the unnecessary stuff from these types of questions and you'll do just fine on your tests.

He may have pneumonia due to lack of care in the nursing home and laying around all the time. Being an Alzheimer patient he probably does not talk much and when he does no one probably listens to him because he gets things mixed up.↔

This and the other question you have posted have convinced me of your dishonesty. You are trying to get others to do your thinking and your homework for you. The purpose of your microbiology and other classes is for you to learn and learn how to find answers but not this way. It's one thing to ask for assistance and guidance but you are asking for far more than that. That is my answer.
