Our Mission: To Improve the Quality of Life for Those Living with Alzheimer's and Their Families

   

 

When an elderly loved one begins to show signs of declining health, it can be hard to differentiate between the normal processes of aging and signs of something more serious. That lack of certainty can also make it difficult to know when to ask for help. While nothing can replace the professional opinion of a doctor, there are some tell-tale signs that may indicate your loved one is suffering from a memory disorder like Alzheimer's or dementia. When you spot the signs, the first step is always to consult with their physician. Next, consider bringing in Alzheimer’s care services for your loved one. Visiting Angels^® Boise can help.

What are the Signs of Alzheimer's?

When it comes to recognizing the onset of Alzheimer’s, it can be easy to confuse symptoms with little slip-ups. One of the clearest indicators that a senior is experiencing chronic memory loss is the persistence of symptoms and their potentially increasing severity. Noticing these symptoms in your loved one may mean it’s time to think about getting professional Alzheimer's care services. Some signs to watch for:

• Confusion or disorientation in both new and familiar places
• Trouble recalling simple words and vocabulary when speaking or writing
• Difficulty with spatial awareness and processing visual information
• Losing track of times, dates, and appointments
• Demonstrating poor judgment and decision-making
• Withdrawal from relationships and social activities
