Alzheimer's Disease

A progressive brain disorder that affects memory, thinking, and daily function over time.

In simple language

Alzheimer's disease is a common cause of dementia. It gradually affects memory, problem-solving, language, orientation, and the ability to manage everyday tasks.

Care usually involves the whole household because medication, safety, driving, routines, mood, and caregiver strain all matter.
