Understanding Dementia & Alzheimer's Disease
Dementia is a broad term for the decline of memory, thinking, or reasoning. While there are many forms of dementia, Alzheimer’s disease is the most common and accounts for 60-80% of all cases. It is important to know that, although the risks of contracting Alzheimer’s disease increase with age, it is not a normal part of aging.
Early warning signs and symptoms of Alzheimer’s and other dementias include the following:
Memory loss that disrupts daily life
Challenges in planning or solving problems
Difficulty completing familiar tasks
Confusion with time or place
Trouble understanding visual images and spatial relationships
New issues with speaking or writing
Misplacing important items
Losing the ability to retrace steps
Withdrawal from work or social activities
Changes in mood or personality
If you notice any of these signs or symptoms, it is important to consult with a doctor or dementia care provider right away.
