Dementia

Dementia is a group of progressive neurological disorders that cause the gradual deterioration of memory, thinking, behaviour, and the ability to perform everyday activities. It is a serious condition that can significantly affect the quality of life for individuals, their families, and caregivers. Dementia is the most common cause of death in people aged 65 and over in many developed countries, and its prevalence is increasing. Early diagnosis and treatment may reduce the severity of symptoms and slow the progression of the disease and its associated disabilities, improving quality of life and providing better outcomes for those living with dementia and their caregivers.
