Many of us have experienced a forgotten name, misplaced keys, or walking into a room and forgetting why we went there. While occasional memory lapses can be a normal part of aging, persistent changes in memory or thinking may be a sign of something more serious. In this segment, Dr. Percy Bracamonte, a geriatrician with BayCare, explains the difference between a typical "senior moment" and possible early signs of dementia, the warning signs that should prompt a conversation with a doctor, the services and resources available through BayCare, and steps people can take to support brain health as they age.
