Home Care Agency Announces Alzheimer’s Disease Warning Signs

Tarrant County, TX (PRWEB) May 23, 2007 ? Senior home care agency Harbor Healthcare is urging Tarrant County residents to watch for early Alzheimer?s disease and dementia warning signs. A county health fair next month has encouraged the agency to motivate Alzheimer?s disease awareness in the community.

?Although every Alzheimer's disease case is different, experts have identified common warning signs, which gradually increase and become more persistent over time,? said Sohail Badruddin, President of Harbor Healthcare. ?Because the illness is progressive and irreversible, it is important to pinpoint symptoms as early as possible so you can begin caring for and treating it.?

Harbor Healthcare, the only senior home care agency in Dallas and Fort Worth specializing in Alzheimer?s disease and dementia treatment, announces that typical warning signs include:

     * Memory loss, especially of recent events, names, placement of objects, and other new information
     * Confusion about time and place
     * Struggling to complete familiar actions, such as brushing teeth or getting dressed
     * Trouble finding the appropriate words, completing sentences, and following directions and conversations
     * Poor judgment when making decisions
     * Changes in mood and personality, such as increased suspicion, rapid and persistent mood swings, withdrawal, and disinterest in usual activities
     * Difficulty with complex mental assignments, such as balancing a checkbook or other tasks involving numbers

?Harbor?s caregivers are specially trained to provide home care services that focus on understanding and assisting with the behaviors of Alzheimer?s disease,? Badruddin said. ?Our staff members are available 24 hours a day to provide you or your loved one with comfort, care and complete peace of mind.?
