People with Alzheimer's disease may exhibit symptoms such as memory loss, confusion, disorientation, mood changes, difficulty with language, and impaired judgment. They may also experience changes in behavior, such as agitation, aggression, wandering, and withdrawal from social interactions. It is important to seek medical advice for proper diagnosis and management of these symptoms.
There are several ways to take care of Alzheimer patients. First of all though, you have to be really patient with them, and not get so antsy when they cannot do the simple tasks.
