Alzheimer’s, a fatal brain disease that affects cognitive abilities, affects millions of people across the nation. An Alzheimer’s diagnosis is often a shock not just for the individual, but for their entire family as well. But, remember that there are steps that your loved one can take to manage this disease.
With Alzheimer’s, being proactive is key. The sooner you witness the warning signs, the sooner your loved one gets diagnosed, and the sooner your loved one can receive home care solutions. There isn’t a cure for Alzheimer’s, but there are medications and lifestyle changes that your loved one can incorporate to improve their quality of life.
Remember that Alzheimer’s disease isn’t a normal part of the aging process. During aging, a person may experience some of the above signs in various degrees. But, when someone has Alzheimer’s, the symptoms get worse as time progresses.
