Clinical assessments of patients at a rehabilitation clinic show they can vividly recall episodic memories from their early adulthood, such as their first jobs or wedding days. However, they cannot form new episodic memories of recent daily events, nor can they acquire new semantic knowledge, such as the names of the therapists or the location of the therapy rooms.
Explain how staff at the clinic could use this information to design supportive care plans for these patients.
