Alzheimer’s and Dementia

Alzheimers-Dementia-Care-Miami-Beach-FLEssentially every adult is aware that aging and elderly individuals are more prone to struggle with memory loss, but the differences between primary causes (e.g. Alzheimer’s disease and different types of dementia) are often misunderstood. This is because dementia is used as a general term to describe loss of memory and/or cognitive ability that affects and disrupts everyday life. Several specific types of dementia include:

  • Alzheimer’s Disease
  • Bodies Dementia
  • Mixed Dementia
  • Parkinson’s Dementia
  • Vascular Dementia

While there are other types of dementia, these are by far the most common. In fact, Alzheimer’s disease accounts for between 60% and 80% of all dementia cases.

Symptoms of Dementia

Alzheimer’s-and-Dementia-Memory-Care-near-Miami-BEach-FLOnce you are a little bit more familiar with names and terminology regarding memory loss, it is important to be able to differentiate between natural aging phenomena and dementia. It is an unfortunate fact that elderly individuals will begin to slow down physically at one point or another; however, there are certain signs to look for to determine if a form of dementia is at play. Common symptoms include:

  • Short-term memory loss
  • Mood changes that seem uncharacteristic or out of place
  • Impaired focus
  • Trouble with word choice
  • Repetition of tasks and sentences

If any of these complications become apparent, our experts highly recommend that you contact a physician, as medications do exist to slow the process (although there is currently no cure).
