- Forgetting important dates or events and needing constant reminders, or memory loss that disrupts daily life
- Challenges with problem-solving, concentrating or planning
- Difficulty completing familiar daily tasks or trouble traveling to a place they know well
- Confusion with time, place, or having trouble remembering where they are or how they arrived
- Vision problems; issues judging distance, color or contrast
- New problems with speaking or writing
- Misplacing items and being unable to retrace steps to find them
- Accusing others of stealing
- Poor judgment and decision-making
- Withdrawing from favorite activities, work or social events
- Changes in mood, especially as their routine is disrupted or they are out of their comfort zone
If you think your loved one may be dealing with memory loss, talk to their doctor, as they may be able to help you evaluate what is normal aging and what may be memory loss.
