Learn why healthcare providers fail to diagnose dementia in older adults and what families can do to improve dementia care. A diagnosis of mild or moderate cognitive impairment often progresses to dementia or Alzheimer's disease in the elderly. Individuals and family members can learn to identify signs of dementia and report concerns to physicians who can initiate memory loss testing. An early dementia diagnosis supports care for elderly parents and helps family caregivers develop elder care strategies. Aging parents and adult children who participate in family meetings about dementia care are more successful at achieving a parent's goals for elder and dementia care and maintaining positive family relationships. Pamela D. Wilson, caregiving expert and expert witness with 25 years of professional experience, offers caregiver education, tips, and advice to help family members and older adults proactively identify memory loss concerns, work with physicians and healthcare providers, initiate family dementia discussions, and create health, financial, and legal care plans to address advancing memory loss.
