first we dont know where the location would be, but I think most possibly, they will call you to see an already admitted pt in the ward who started having mental status changes, with different story.
the first thing would be to change the location, look at drugs which the pt is on, and than decide which one you want to continue or D/C then your lab work and other steps.
