Early signs of dementia – how to respond

Dementia often begins subtly, through small changes that are easy to attribute to aging or fatigue. Early recognition is crucial for maintaining quality of life.

Early Signs of Dementia

  1. Memory loss that disrupts daily life
  2. Disorientation in familiar places
  3. Communication difficulties
  4. Changes in behavior and mood
  5. Poor judgment and decision-making

Fun Fact: Sense of Smell as an Early Warning

A reduced sense of smell (coffee, food, perfume) can be one of the earliest neurological signs of dementia.

  • consult a family doctor
  • document changes and frequency
  • involve family members
