DEMENTIA FACTS AND FIGURES
"Dementia is not a specific disease. It is a descriptive term for a collection of symptoms that can be caused by a number of disorders that affect the brain. People with dementia have significantly impaired intellectual functioning that interferes with normal activities and relationships.
They also lose their ability to solve problems and maintain emotional control, and they may experience personality changes and behavioral problems, such as agitation, delusions, and hallucinations. While memory loss is a common symptom of dementia, memory loss by itself does not mean that a person has dementia. Doctors diagnose dementia only if two or more brain functions - such as memory and language skills -- are significantly impaired without loss of consciousness.
Some of the diseases that can cause symptoms of dementia are Alzheimer’s disease (AD), vascular dementia, Lewy body dementia, frontotemporal dementia, Huntington’s disease, and Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease. Doctors have identified other conditions that can cause dementia or dementia-like symptoms including reactions to medications, metabolic problems and endocrine abnormalities, nutritional deficiencies, infections, poisoning, brain tumors, anoxia, or hypoxia (conditions in which the brain’s oxygen supply is either reduced or cut off entirely), and heart and lung problems. Although it is common in very elderly individuals, dementia is not a normal part of the aging process"*
Moreover, recent studies have found that newer brain scans may point to other causes of Dementia in approximately one-third of presumed AD cases, thereby helping avoid an Alzheimer’s disease misdiagnosis which in turn, may lead to better treatment and care.**

Our Experience With In Home Care With Types Of Dementia
In Home Care For Alzheimer’s Disease
Home Health Care For Vascular Disease Related Dementia
In home care for vascular related dementia is our second most experienced area of care giving for dementia. Vascular related dementia has many important distinctions from Alzheimer’s disease and other dementia’s, so only caregivers with specialized training and experience in this area of expertise are used. Since vascular dementia is often accompanied by post stroke physiological related deficits, we can provide caregivers that can also assist with physical and occupational therapy needs of your loved ones. This plays a key role in regaining independence.
Home Health Care For Mixed Dementia
Our care giving experience with mixed dementia is very substantial. In home care for mixed dementia involves care giving for abnormalities linked to more than one type of dementia occurring simultaneously in the brain. Since we are working with multiple dementia’s, we ensure these caregivers are trained and experienced with all involved dementia’s.
