OMAHA, Neb., Sept. 12, 2022 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- An estimated 6.5 million Americans ages 65 and older are living with Alzheimer's disease, and many are undiagnosed. Stigma and uncertainty lead many to avoid seeking medical attention for their symptoms. Yet proper diagnosis can lead to a better understanding of how to manage the disease for optimal outcomes. This World Alzheimer's Month, Home Instead and Alzheimer's Disease International are encouraging post-diagnosis support for people living with dementia and their loved ones.
