Dementia decoded:
Early detection is key
Dementia impacts memory, thinking, and the ability to live independently. Alzheimer’s disease is the most common form, making up about 70% of cases. Other types include vascular, Lewy body, frontotemporal, and mixed dementia.
Early diagnosis and regular screenings starting at age 65 greatly improve care outcomes. Annual dementia screenings are recommended.
