5 WARNING<br />

SIGNS OF<br />

ALZHEIMER'S<br />

REDHAVEN CARE HOMES


MEMORY LOSS<br />

Memory loss is one <strong>of</strong> the early signs <strong>of</strong> dementia among seniors.<br />

We all don't remember everything that happens to our daily life<br />

but forgetting important events can indicate early signs <strong>of</strong><br />

<strong>Alzheimer's</strong>. Typical examples are forgetting people's name,<br />

important appointments, etc.


FINDING THE FAMILIAR<br />

TASK DIFFICULT<br />

Seniors with dementia <strong>of</strong>ten find it difficult to<br />

perform familiar tasks. Like, calling someone,<br />

playing a game or forgetting the purpose for<br />

which you came into a room.


WRITING OR SPEAKING<br />

PROBLEM<br />

<strong>Alzheimer's</strong> patient finds it hard to remember<br />

simple words, which creates a problem for them<br />

while writing or speaking. They <strong>of</strong>ten fail to find<br />

their toothbrush and ask for "that thing for my<br />

mouth".


TIME & PLACE CONFUSION<br />

Time and place is a major problem for <strong>Alzheimer's</strong> patient. They <strong>of</strong>ten<br />

become lost in their own neighborhood or unable to figure out how to<br />

get back home from a certain place. Typical examples are, forgetting<br />

the day <strong>of</strong> the week or where they are going.


INCORRECT JUDGEMENT<br />

People with <strong>Alzheimer's</strong> fail to judge situations properly. They<br />

lack that judgemental power and <strong>of</strong>ten give away large sums <strong>of</strong><br />

money to telemarketers without any good requirement. Also, they<br />

become involved in debatable decisions with others.
