Dementia Care Gaithersburg | Help with Forgetfulness

Dementia Care for Your Loved One

Dementia is a condition that causes nerve cells in the brain stop functioning properly. This most often occurs as a natural part of aging but rapid deterioration may be a more serious condition.

According to the National Institute on Aging, the most common condition is Alzheimer’s disease.

Other types of dementia may be caused by Lewy body dementia, frontotemporal dementia, vascular disorders or mixed dementia (a combination of these).

We recommend that you consult your family physician to learn more about you or your loved one’s condition.

It is quite common for individuals with dementia to require some support. CarePlus is here to help.
