Understanding Dementia and Alzheimer’s Disease

Dementia, including Alzheimer’s, is a progressive neurological condition that affects memory, thinking, and daily functioning. While aging increases risk, it is not a normal part of getting older. Early identification is key to planning, managing symptoms, and maintaining quality of life.

At BrainWise in Providence, RI, we specialize in evaluating adults with signs of neurodegenerative conditions to develop an individualized treatment plan for patients and their families.

What are some common signs and symptoms?

Family members often notice subtle changes at first, including:

  • Memory lapses that disrupt daily life

  • Difficulty finding words or following conversations

  • Challenges with planning or problem-solving

  • Getting lost in familiar places

  • Mood changes such as anxiety, depression, or irritability

Alzheimer’s is more than being forgetful—it’s a life-changing condition that challenges both the individual and the people who love them
