Dementia/delirium : I would recommend a full psychiatric evaluation for dementia or delirium. And it should be done ASAP.

R/O Delirium: Dr Berry is right on target. The paranoia and aggression are particularly concerning. With new onset in this age group - promptly ruling medical causes is essential.
