What is dementia?

Dementia is not a single condition, but a term used to describe the symptoms connected to memory loss and cognitive decline. There are several forms of dementia, and multiple symptoms, including:

· Trouble with language and communication

· Difficulty maintaining attention and focus

· Changes in visual perception

· Poor reasoning and judgment

· Problems with short-term memory

Dementia symptoms tend to worsen over time. For many men and women, minor issues with short-term memory and reasoning skills are easy to overlook or chalk up to a busy lifestyle. Over time, however, these issues become more noticeable.
