Abstract

Dementia is a general term that describes different symptoms of cognitive decline, like forgetfulness, impairment of thinking and memory loss. In the United States, almost 3.7 to 5.8 million people are living with dementia. Most require a level of assistance as they attempt to navigate their daily lives, maintain relationships and participate in activities they enjoy. Remembering to take medications and how often, avoiding physical mishaps and managing personal care are also activities that require caregiving assistance for those suffering from dementia.
