Our Service
ALZHEIMER OR DEMENTIA OR PARKINSON
Discovering that a loved one might be grappling with neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, or dementia can be emotionally shattering. As you grapple with the implications and considerations of their cognitive decline, Gifted Hands Care stands as a beacon of support and guidance to navigate these challenging waters. Alzheimer's disease, in particular, manifests initially with mild symptoms that progressively worsen over time, leading to significant cognitive decline. While some level of memory loss and functional changes is expected with aging, an acceleration or intensification of symptoms could signal the onset of Alzheimer's or another form of dementia.
Here are some key indicators to observe:
Memory Impairment: Difficulty recalling words, details, directions, people, or past events can be an early sign of cognitive decline.
Functional Decline: Struggling with routine tasks like nutrition, personal hygiene, or grooming may indicate impairment.
Mood Changes: Depression or a lack of motivation can often accompany neurodegenerative disorders, impacting overall well-being.
Confusion and Forgetfulness: Regular instances of forgetfulness and confusion may become more pronounced over time.
Irritability: Uncharacteristic irritability or mood swings can be a manifestation of underlying cognitive issues.
Judgment and Decision-Making: Impaired judgment and poor decision-making abilities may become apparent.
Moreover, individuals with Alzheimer’s or Parkinson’s disease face an increased risk of accidental falls and injuries, underscoring the importance of proactive care and safety measures.
