What is Alzheimer’s Disease?

Alzheimer's disease is a neurological disorder that often begins slowly with mild symptoms that gradually advance. Individuals with this illness often suffer from memory loss and the inability to care properly for their own nutritional and personal hygiene needs. Patients with Alzheimer’s are also at a higher risk of falling or accidentally injuring themselves, and an in-home care provider can assist you in keeping your loved one safe.

Symptoms of Alzheimer’s Disease include:

  • The inability to remember words, details, directions, people and events
  • Difficulty performing simple tasks (such as personal hygiene or grooming)
  • Depression or lack of motivation
  • Forgetfulness and confusion
  • Irritability
  • Poor decision making or judgment

BrightStar Care Metro San Antonio is proud to provide person-centered Alzheimer’s and dementia care to help individuals in our community live with dignity in the comfort of home. Our professional, specially trained care staff is ready to help you and your loved one.
