Christy Pennington, RN, PAC™ Certified Dementia Trainer

Normal Aging or Dementia? Before you start assuming that symptoms or behaviors you see in someone who is changing are due to the effects of dementia, it's important to get things checked out. Many health challenges like depression, hypothyroidism, diabetes, new medication side effects, or vision and hearing loss, for example, may present with "dementia-like" symptoms but not be dementia. They might be treatable conditions or symptoms that can be addressed with support or environmental modification.
