Diagnosis: Alzheimers

Alzheimer’s is a type of dementia that causes problems with memory, thinking and behavior. Symptoms usually develop slowly and get worse over time, becoming severe enough to interfere with daily tasks.This is a progressive disease, which means the symptoms will gradually get worse. Hospice of CNY accepts patients who are in the late-stages of Alzheimer’s.
