AGES – What is Dementia?

dementiaDementia is the word doctors use to describe an illness that includes loss of memory and the ability to think clearly.

If you answered yes to several questions on the AGES home page, an elder may have symptoms of this illness.

You may feel alarmed, but sometimes doctors can help patients quickly recover. Other times, the symptoms are caused by a disease that will continue or get worse.

You can best help the elder and yourself by finding out what’s causing the problems and by planning for the future.
