Alzheimer’s and Dementia Care.

What is Alzheimer's Disease and Dementia?

Alzheimer's disease is a progressive neurological disorder that affects memory, cognition, and behavior. Dementia is a general term for a decline in cognitive function severe enough to interfere with daily life. While Alzheimer's is the most common cause of dementia, there are other types as well, including vascular dementia, Lewy body dementia, and frontotemporal dementia, each with its own set of symptoms and challenges.
