Recognise the signs. Changes in a loved one can become more noticeable over the holiday period, as we spend more time with friends and family. Dementia can be a subtle and gradual journey, making it challenging to spot the early signs. 🧠🔍 It's crucial to remember that everyone's experience with dementia is unique. The person you know might not seem like their usual self, and it's important to approach this with understanding and compassion. Here are 10 key early warning signs of dementia to be aware of: Memory loss affecting daily activities. Difficulty performing familiar tasks. Problems with language and communication. Disorientation to time and place. Poor or decreased judgement. Problems with abstract thinking. Misplacing things frequently. Changes in mood or behaviour. Changes in personality. Loss of initiative or motivation. If you notice these signs in someone you care about, it’s important to seek professional advice. Early detection can make a significant difference. 🩺 Alternatively, at NeuroClin, we offer a memory screening service for those over 55 who are concerned about memory decline and who are potentially interested in participating in our research program.

Feel like your forgetting things? If you're concerned about memory loss or changes in thinking, I made this dementia self-test that can help assess your cognitive health.

Alzheimer's presents a major risk for all as we age, but particularly for women. A majority, or two-thirds, of individuals in the United States affected by Alzheimer's are women. Additionally, 60% of those who take on the caregiving responsibilities for loved ones with dementia are also women. We invite you to join us for a lunchtime talk story on March 5 with Dr. Courtney Kloske, Ph.D., Alzheimer's Association, as we discuss the biological and social factors that contribute to the heightened risk for women. During this session, we will explore whether these risks go beyond age, discuss lifestyle interventions for prevention, and learn about the latest advancements in Alzheimer's research.

Anxiety may be the newest risk factor for dementia. According to the study, both chronic and new onset anxiety increased dementia risk 3-7x's. But there is good news...with effective treatment, that risk disappeared. I break it all down and include a link to the full study in this video. 👇👇 https://lnkd.in/gRQMt9Qj You can also access the full research article in the link under the video.
