Memory Home Care services in Bolingbrook, IL & Will County
Dementia describes conditions that include the loss of one’s cognitive ability or memory that disrupts everyday living. There are several types of dementia including Alzheimer’s disease, mixed dementia, bodies dementia, Parkinson’s dementia, vascular dementia, and others. However, the most common form of dementia is Alzheimer’s disease.
In Bolingbrook, Joliet, Romeoville, IL and surrounding areas in Will County, Assisting Hands Home Care helps elderly individuals affected by dementia through our Alzheimer’s and dementia home care services.
Signs and Symptoms: Alzheimer’s Disease versus Aging
Memory loss is not an automatic indicator of Alzheimer’s disease or other types of dementia. The following are some of the early signs of dementia:
- Short-term memory loss
- Impaired focus
- Repeating tasks and sentences
- Uncharacteristic changes in mood
- Hard time finding the correct words to use
Consulting a physician is the best way to find out whether someone has dementia. Medications can assist in slowing the disease’s progression, but there is no cure.
