About the Dementia Session
Dementia is a condition that often appears when the brain is harmed by disease or injury and presents as a group of connected symptoms. Progressive memory, cognitive, and behavioural deficits are among the symptoms, which have a detrimental effect on a person's capacity to operate and do daily tasks. The most prevalent symptoms, in addition to memory loss and disruption of mental processes, include emotional issues, linguistic difficulties, and diminished motivation. The symptoms can be thought of as developing gradually across a number of phases. Nobody's consciousness is impacted. In the end, dementia has a tremendous impact on the patient, the carers, and social interactions in general. For a person to be diagnosed with dementia, there must be a deviation from their normal mental functioning and a larger cognitive decline than hat is caused by normal aging.
