The Effects of Alzheimer's and Dementia
Before we embark on this journey of specialized care, it's crucial to understand what an Alzheimer's or dementia diagnosis entails for your loved one. Imagine the frustration of forgetting familiar faces, the confusion of everyday tasks, or the emotional rollercoaster of mood swings.

Cognitive decline and memory loss progress through the stages of the disease, causing daily activities to become challenging and emotions to become unpredictable.
