Understanding Alzheimer’s Disease and Dementia
Alzheimer’s disease and dementia are often used interchangeably, but they are not the same. Dementia is a general term for a decline in cognitive abilities severe enough to interfere with daily life, while Alzheimer’s is the most common cause of dementia, accounting for 60-80% of cases. Dementia can result from various conditions, including vascular disease, Parkinson’s, or Lewy body disease, each affecting memory, thinking, and behavior in different ways. While some forms of dementia are reversible or treatable, Alzheimer’s is a progressive and irreversible disease that gradually impairs memory, reasoning, and the ability to perform basic tasks.
As Alzheimer’s and dementia progress, individuals experience increasing difficulty with communication, decision-making, and recognizing loved ones. Early signs may include forgetfulness, confusion, and difficulty completing familiar tasks. Over time, the condition worsens, leading to significant challenges with mobility, personal care, and overall well-being. While there is no cure, early intervention, structured routines, and compassionate in-home care can help manage symptoms and improve quality of life
