Answer: The nurse would known that the women will not remember their family and friends.

Explanation:

The Alzheimer can be defined as the the disease in which the person is not able to recognize the family and friends.

The person might not remember the incidents, places, things or anything which needs to be memorized.

Such person must be surrounded with people they are connected to in order to fulfill the demands as they do not remember things by their own.

The nurse knows this much about this disorder.
