Recognizing the Signs During the Holidays
Holiday gatherings often provide rare moments to connect with older loved ones, offering an opportunity to observe potential memory or behavior changes that might otherwise go unnoticed. The Alzheimer’s Association stresses the importance of knowing the 10 Warning Signs of Alzheimer’s and other dementias to ensure early detection and timely support visit https://tinyurl.com/ycxvmhp6.
These holiday observations frequently lead to an increase in calls to the Association’s 24/7 Helpline, a resource available year-round to provide guidance and support for families navigating dementia-related challenges.
