Age-Related Neurocognitive Disorders

Age-Related Neurocognitive Disorders refer to a group of conditions that affect memory, thinking, and social abilities in older adults. These disorders, which include Alzheimer's disease and other dementias, can lead to increased difficulty in performing daily tasks, remembering information, and maintaining relationships. While some cognitive decline is a normal part of aging, these disorders are more severe and interfere significantly with everyday life. Early detection and intervention can help manage symptoms and improve quality of life for those affected and their families.
