What is Dementia?Dementia is a general term for a group of progressive brain disorders that impair memory, thinking, and daily functioning.
It occurs when nerve cells in the brain become damaged, disrupting the chemical signals that help different parts of the brain and body communicate. Over time, this affects memory, behaviour, and physical ability.
Common Types of Dementia inlcude:Alzheimer's disease - the most common form, affecting memory and thinking.
Vascular dementia - caused by reduced blood flow to the brain.
Lewy body dementia - linked to abnormal protein deposits in the brain.
Frontotemporal dementia - affects personality , behaviour, and language.
Mixed dementia - a combination of two or more types of Alzheimer's and vascular dementia.
