Alzheimer’s and Dementia Home Care in Maple Grove / Andover

It can be heartbreaking to suspect — or learn — that your loved one has Alzheimer’s or dementia. As you begin to think about ways to keep them healthy, safe and happy, it may feel overwhelming, but you can turn to BrightStar® Home Care Maple Grove / Andover for guidance.

The First Signs

Alzheimer’s disease is a neurological disorder that often begins slowly with mild symptoms that gradually advance. Although some memory loss or changes in function are normal as we age, if symptoms move quickly or become more frequent, it could potentially indicate the onset of Alzheimer’s or another form of dementia.

 Here are some things to watch out for:

  • The inability to remember words, details, directions, people and events
  • Difficulty performing simple tasks (such as nutrition, personal hygiene or grooming)
  • Depression or lack of motivation
  • Forgetfulness and confusion
  • Uncharacteristic irritability
  • Poor decision making or judgment

It’s also important to note that those who have Alzheimer’s may be at a greater risk of falling or accidentally injuring themselves.
