Frequently Asked Questions

Dementia is a progressive condition affecting the brain, causing memory loss, confusion, and difficulty with daily tasks. Common symptoms include disorientation, language problems, mood changes, and impaired judgment that worsen over time.

Dementia includes types such as Alzheimer’s disease, vascular dementia, Lewy body dementia, and frontotemporal dementia. Each type affects the brain differently and shows varying symptoms and progression patterns.

Diagnosis involves clinical assessments, cognitive tests, medical history, and sometimes brain imaging. Early diagnosis helps plan care, manage symptoms, and support both patients and carers effectively.

Treatments include pharmaceutical options to manage symptoms and non‑drug psychological or person‑centred approaches that support daily functioning, emotional wellbeing, and quality of life for individuals with dementia.

Effective dementia caregiving requires empathy, communication techniques, patience, safety awareness, and understanding legal care frameworks. These skills help create supportive environments and respectful care routines.
