Dementia and Cognitive Health

"Those with dementia are still people and they still have stories and they still have character and they're all individuals and they're all unique." — Carey Mulligan


Dementia is an umbrella term for a range of cognitive impairments that interfere with daily life, affecting memory, language, problem-solving, and other thinking abilities. Alzheimer's disease is the most common cause of dementia.

Dementia significantly impacts individuals, families, and communities. Understanding cognitive health, recognizing early signs, and adopting preventive measures can enhance quality of life and potentially delay the progression of cognitive decline. Continued research and awareness are vital in addressing the challenges posed by dementia.
