Transitions in Caregiving for Alzheimer’s and Dementia
Alzheimer’s disease is the only top-10 cause of death without any way to prevent, cure or even slow its progression. In 2012, the first Baby Boomers turned 65. Out of this population, currently estimated to number close to 76 million, it is projected that 10 million will develop Alzheimer’s.
Alzheimer’s is just one type of dementia, which is defined as a group of symptoms affecting intellectual and social abilities severely enough to interfere with daily functioning. Our assisted living services apply with equal relevancy across the cognitive decline and memory loss continuum. Memory care matters.
