The 7 Stages of Alzheimer’s Dementia Symptoms Explained: Stage 5
In this foundational video, I discuss Reisberg’s Global Deterioration Scale GDS of the 7 stages of dementia.
🛤 Stage 5 Moderately Severe Cognitive Decline
📕 People in this stage have major memory deficiencies and need some assistance to complete their daily activities (dressing, bathing, preparing meals).
