About Dementia
Dementia is a condition that affects memory and can strike people of all ages — with older adults being the prime target. Dementia causes confusion and disorientation; people may forget where they are, who they are and what is happening around them.
Caring for a loved one who has dementia can be difficult for loved ones. An individual you love and respect may forget who you are or display behavior that is completely different from the person you remember. Though it is difficult, you are going to have to put your own needs and feelings to the side when caring for them. Thankfully, this is not something you have to do alone. Your friends and neighbors at CentraCare are here to help you and your loved ones get through this.
Research has shown that effective care and support can improve the quality of life for individuals over the course of the disease.
