Dementia in Adults and Seniors

Dementia is a progressive decline in cognitive function (things like planning, understanding and decision-making) caused by damage or disease in the brain beyond what is normal from the natural effects of aging. Although dementia is much more common among the elderly, it may occur in any stage of adulthood.
