Associated Memory Impairment
Through the work
of researchers and clinicians, it is now possible
to identify three different levels of memory impairment. Memory
problems that are part of the aging process, problems that signify
a more serious condition, such as mild cognitive impairment,
and memory problems that indicate Alzheimer's disease.
The following pages provide information about how memory works, the different
levels of memory impairment, care and treatment options currently available
for each condition, and the work being done to find more effective treatments
and cures in the future.
