Is screening for dementia important?
It takes an average of about 10 years for Alzheimer's disease to progress from its early stages to its later stages.
If patients receive early assessment, diagnosis and treatment and seize the golden treatment period, they can slow down the rate of cognitive decline and have a very important impact on the patient's disease progression and long-term care plan.
