What is the Difference Between Alzheimer's and Dementia?
Alzheimer's disease and dementia are often used interchangeably, but they are not the same. Dementia is an umbrella term that encompasses a range of symptoms related to cognitive decline, such as memory loss, difficulty with communication, and changes in behavior. Alzheimer's disease is a specific type of dementia characterized by progressive memory loss and cognitive decline.
While Alzheimer's disease is the most common form of dementia, there are other types, such as vascular dementia, Lewy body dementia, and frontotemporal dementia. Each type of dementia has its own set of symptoms and progression, requiring different approaches to care.
