Resumen
Estudios muestran que la alteración del estado mental se presenta en el 40% de los pacientes mayores de 50 años Quienes padecen la enfermedad de Alzheimer se convierten en personas dependientes, pues cambian totalmente de vida, necesitan ayuda para realizar actividades cotidianas como: asearse, caminar solos, vestirse, alimentarse, etc. Los familiares deben aprender a comunicarse con el paciente, porque la persona cada vez será más incapaz de expresar sus ideas en palabras y menos capaz de entender lo que se le está diciendo. El primer síntoma de Alzheimer puede ser una pérdida leve de memoria, para luego afectar el lenguaje, razonamiento, comprensión, lectura y escritura. El deterioro paulatino del cerebro dificulta la capacidad de asimilar nueva información la comprensión de un chiste, decir la hora, recordar las actividades diarias se torna difícil llevar las cuentas del banco, preparar una comida y realizar tareas que requieran varias etapas resulta cada vez más arduo. Estimular el lenguaje a través del dialogo diario, ubicación de tiempo, ejercicios matemático, han logrado que los pacientes con la enfermedad de Alzheimer atenué su deterioro que es progresivo obteniendo una mejor calidad de vida, ya que se sientes personas útiles a la sociedad.
