Major Neurocognitive Disorder, commonly known as Dementia, involves a significant decline in one or more cognitive areas (like memory, attention, or language) from a previous level of performance. This decline is severe enough to interfere with a person’s independence in everyday activities. Our team provides support for patients and their families navigating this challenging condition.

Common Symptoms or Things to Look Out For:

• Evidence of significant cognitive decline from a previous level in one or more cognitive domains.
• The cognitive deficits interfere with independence in everyday activities (e.g., at a minimum, requiring assistance with complex instrumental activities of daily living, such as paying bills or managing medications).
• The cognitive deficits do not occur exclusively in the context of a delirium.
