What Is Alzheimer’s and Dementia Care?
Dementia, in general, is defined as a decline in mental ability that is severe enough to interfere with a person's daily life, such as memory loss or an inability to complete familiar tasks. Alzheimer's disease is the most common type of dementia, accounting for 50 to 80 percent of all cases of dementia. Our services assist people who are experiencing these symptoms by focusing on their remaining abilities and strengths while assisting with tasks that have become difficult for the client to complete.
