What are Alzheimer’s and Dementia?
We discuss the specifics of and differences between Alzheimer’s and dementia in this article, but simply put, here are the definitions of both:
DEMENTIA
Dementia is an umbrella term used to describe various memory-loss-related symptoms. It is not a specific disease. Symptoms associated with dementia include memory loss, change in thinking skills, difficulty focusing, low attention span, lack of reasoning skills, and decline in the ability to communicate.
ALZHEIMER’S
Alzheimer’s is a specific disease and is the most common form of dementia. While Alzheimer’s can have numerous different symptoms, the most common is memory loss.
