Alzheimer’s disease is a degenerative brain disease that is unfortunately well-known amongst the senior population. What’s even more common is dementia, an overall term used when a group of symptoms presents in a patient, including memory loss and other cognitive impairments.

If you’re in the Evansville, Indiana area, we invite you to reach out and learn how one of our Newburgh, Boonville, and Evansville Alzheimer's care and Dementia support professionals can help.
