Stages of Dementia – and How Vital Helps
Dementia is a progressive illness, meaning that the condition will cause a continual decline in memory, understanding, logic and emotions. This may result in the need for full-time care as the affected person begins to find functions like eating, grooming and cleaning too challenging.
In the early states of the illness, the individual or their carer might notice signs of memory loss and confusion caused by otherwise normal routine activities.
Some other tip offs of dementia may include personality changes, unusual apathy or inability to function in day-to-day activities.
If these symptoms persist, it is important that a doctor’s diagnosis is received as soon as possible.
While there is no cure for dementia, there are treatments available to assist the affected person . With the right care and support, quality of life can be significantly improved.
