Problem
I. Several risk factors have been identified for the development of dementia or Alzheimer's Disease. Explain these risk factors.
II. At any age, there are preventive measures that can be taken to prevent cognitive impairment associated with aging. Share some specific steps you can take starting today to protect yourself from normal cognitive decline.
III. Growing older is inevitable, but as George Burns once famously said, "You can't help growing older, but you don't have to get old." Falling is associated with cognitive decline and is a common fear of older adults, as falls can lead to injuries that are challenging to fully recover from. What is the best way to reduce fall risks in someone's home and in daily life activities?
