Alzheimer’s & Dementia Care

There are millions of people around the world that have debilitating diseases such as Alzheimer’s disease or other forms of dementia. Dementia can be defined as “an overall decline in intellectual function, including difficulties with language, simple calculations, planning and judgment, and motor skills, as well as loss of memory.” This disease causes dramatic changes in personality (mood, behavior and memory). Alzheimer’s is the most common form of dementia. It triggers irreversible changes to the brain that result in problems communicating, thinking, and taking care of basic needs. The most common symptoms are:

• memory loss that disrupts daily life;
• confusion with time or place;
• new problems with words in speaking or writing;
• decreased or poor judgment;
• changes in mood and personality, etc.

Symptoms vary as the disease affects each person differently. If you observe some warning signs of Alzheimer’s in your loved one, please contact us for a free care consultation. We will help you determine what type of care may be needed. Because each individual with Alzheimer’s disease needs intense levels of care. Remember, if someone you love has received a diagnosis of this debilitating disease, you’re not alone.
