👉 4.3 million people 55+ who have cognitive impairment or dementia live alone in the United States. Studies show that half of those surveyed struggle with daily tasks like bathing or cooking, yet only a third receive any assistance. Without support, seniors with declining cognitive abilities face serious consequences. They may struggle with essential tasks — leading to social isolation, malnutrition, and vulnerability to exploitation. Ultimately, their health may deteriorate unnoticed, and dementia can go undiagnosed.

Dr. Armen Moughamian, MD PhD explores the causes of sleep disruptions and how to address them in this popular article on Learn → https://lnkd.in/gJ9Mdywz #dementia #dementiacare #dementiadiagnosis #dementiacaregiver #dementiaawareness #caregiversupport #sleep
