Lecture - Memory Disorders No One Wins If You Do Nothing

Auditorium

Most of us know that dementia is a progressive decline in

memory and cognitive function. But could you distinguish

dementia from delirium, an acute state of confusion that

has many causes, from infections and drug reactions,

to the onset of dementia? If it happened to you, are your

healthcare decisions known? Please join Sarasota Memorial's

Memory Disorder experts to learn more about dementia,

delirium, how they differ, how they’re related, and how you

can be proactive about them. A short Q and A will follow

our second presentation.
