Yikes! I walked into the room and forgot the reason why. Does that sound familiar? Is it normal aging or is it something else? Some mild changes in cognition are considered a normal part of the aging process. However, dementia, including Alzheimer's disease, is not normal aging! Normal, age-related declines are subtle and mostly affect the speed of thinking and attentional control. Still, there can be other changes that you need to be aware of so that you know the difference and can take action.
Purpose: Learn the difference between normal, age-related decline vs something more
Facilitator: Amy Schenk (Guest Presenter – Neuropsychiatric Research Center of Southwest Florida)
