Dementia Care Services in Broward County, Florida
Dementia is a progressive disease with several stages. In the early stage, an affected person begins to experience forgetfulness. In the mid-and late stages, memory problems become increasingly worse, causing issues with safety and security.
People commonly believe that dementia and Alzheimer’s are one and the same, however, that isn’t accurate. Alzheimer’s disease is a type of dementia, and it’s the most common form of dementia.
Less common forms of dementia include vascular dementia, Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease, and frontotemporal dementia. The symptoms of these diseases are quite similar to Alzheimer’s and each disease has its own nuances and challenges.
Because various types of dementia have different causes, they have different symptoms, and they progress in different ways.
A qualified dementia caregiver is familiar with how the different types of dementia manifest and how best to respond to a person living with dementia.
