Understanding Alzheimer's disease

Jane Nickels, Admiral Nurse at Dementia UK discusses dementia with a focus on Alzheimer’s, the most common type of dementia. Alzheimer’s causes a gradual decline in memory, thinking, behaviour, and social skills, affecting a person’s ability to function. Though dementia mostly affects older adults, it is not a part of normal aging. 

We take a look at the early signs of the disease, its impact on individuals and their families’ lives, the help and support available, whether some symptoms can be delayed or avoided, and who is more prone to getting it.
