Understanding Alzheimer's Disease and the Benefits of In-Home Alzheimer's Care in Granbury, TX and Surrounding Areas

A neurodegenerative illness that worsens over time, Alzheimer's disease impacts cognition, behavior, and memory. It accounts for 60-80 percent of all dementia cases according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, making it the most prevalent kind. Because it is a degenerative illness, Alzheimer's becomes worse with time and has no known treatment.

Some of the most common symptoms of Alzheimer's disease include:

• Memory loss
• Difficulty performing familiar tasks
• Confusion about time and place
• Trouble with language
• Changes in mood and behavior
• Difficulty with problem-solving

These symptoms may worsen and affect a senior's capacity to care for themselves as the illness advances.

Elderly people and their families may find it hard to live with Alzheimer's. Simple activities like washing, grooming, and taking medications may become more difficult for seniors as the condition advances. This poses risks to their general well-being and raises worries about their safety. Although it may seem like a good idea at the time, relocating a senior loved one to a nursing home or assisted living facility isn't always the best choice for their health. People with Alzheimer's may experience anxiety and disorientation when placed in a new setting. On the other hand, people with Alzheimer's may get the help they need without leaving the familiar and comforting environment of their own home with in-home Alzheimer's care from professional caregiving agencies like Visiting Angels of Granbury.
