Senile Dementia
For many families, changes in memory and behavior in an older person cause concern and questions about when to seek help. Senile dementia is a progressive deterioration of cognitive functions, such as memory, reasoning, and language, that affects the person's ability to carry out daily activities.
Signs that may appear: Frequent forgetfulness, disorientation, difficulty finding words, changes in character, or problems with routine tasks.
Which specialist treats it? The neurologist studies the causes of cognitive decline, and the geriatrician supports the comprehensive care of the older adult. Discussing these changes early with a professional allows you to understand their nature and plan the care each situation requires.
