During hospitalization,Ms Tailor attained good progress. She is  able to minimize delusion and hallucinations ,and 1- also started to focus on her daily living activities. 

• Avoiding the usage of also would be fine

Ms Tailor is unemployed and is on disability allowance. She has hypertension secondary to fibro muscular dysplasia and primary hypothyroidism for which she has been taking medication. Please note,she has a history of poly substance abuse mainly cocaine and alcohol.
