Alzheimer's Care

Alzheimer's disease is the most common form of dementia, a neurologic disease characterized by loss of mental ability severe enough to interfere with normal activities of daily living. Alzheimer's usually occurs in old age and is marked by a decline in cognitive functions such as remembering, reasoning and planning.

The key signs of Alzheimer's disease are:

• Memory loss


• Difficulty performing familiar tasks


• Problems with language


• Disorientation to time and place


• Poor or decreased judgment


• Problems with abstract thinking


• Misplacing things


• Changes in mood or behavior


• Changes in personality


• Loss of initiative
