America’s aging population is at risk for Alzheimer’s and other forms of dementia. A report from the Alzheimer’s Association reveals that one-third of the aging population die with dementia. In most cases, dementia contributed to the mortality rate.

In fact, previous data shows that the rate of deaths for those with Alzheimer’s disease increased by 68% between 2000 to 2010. The sharp increase in dementia-related deaths has led Beth Kallymer, the Vice President of constituent services from the Alzheimer’s Association, to refer to the disease as a public health crisis.

Senior care companies help by providing support that enhances the quality of life for both families and patients. Senior Helpers provides in-home senior care services to help those suffering from dementia cope with their condition.
