Abstract
Today, if a patient with Alzheimer's disease is not adequately treated, symptoms may worsen over time. It may not be possible to notice possible signs of this disease in a loved one or acquaintance at an early stage, until severe memory loss becomes a warning sign. Today there are a number of specialized therapies to manage the disease and prevent further damage to the brain. Patients undergo these therapies in the hands of experts at rehabilitation centers. But, to take care of a person with Alzheimer's disease at home is a difficult task and every day this person has to cope with changes in the level of ability and new patterns of behavior of the patient.
