Dementia and Alzheimer's Care

Support for the Realities of Aging

Dementia affects millions of seniors in the United States, and when it impacts someone in your family it can be challenging and exhausting. The term “dementia” actually describes a condition where symptoms like impaired judgment and memory loss become serious enough to disrupt a senior’s daily activities. If your loved one is still living at home, at times their dementia can put them at risk. Eventually, dementia can lead to declining health, along with behavioral and personality changes.
