When older adults report memory lapses, attention problems, and other cognitive difficulties to their doctors, what could be going on? Could cognitive struggles indicate undiagnosed ADHD, a neurodevelopmental disorder? Or might they signal early signs of dementia, a neurodegenerative condition? How do you differentiate between ADHD and dementia when both conditions share overlapping symptoms?
In this webinar, you will learn:
- About the diagnostic considerations for cognitive symptoms including poor memory and focus
- What differentiates dementia from ADHD in older adults
- About concurrent medical and psychiatric disorders that contribute to cognitive complaints
- About treatment options for ADHD that consider safety, drug interactions, and target symptoms in older populations
