Abstract
Alzheimer's Disease (AD) is a relentless and progressive neurodegenerative disorder that inflicts profound cognitive decline, memory impairment, and functional limitations upon those it affects. This case report serves as a comprehensive exploration of the clinical journey of a 72-year-old female patient, vividly illustrating the intricate process of her evaluation, diagnostic investigation, and the management strategies deployed upon her diagnosis of Alzheimer's Disease. Timely identification of cognitive changes and memory deficits is a linchpin for affording patients and their families the opportunity to access appropriate support and interventions. This case study, therefore, highlights the critical role played by vigilant healthcare providers in recognizing the subtle signs of AD. Crucially, the multidisciplinary approach to Alzheimer's management is a recurrent theme throughout this case. The collaborative efforts of neurologists, geriatric psychiatrists, social workers, and caregivers are indispensable in navigating the complex terrain of Alzheimer's care. This case report thus serves as a compelling reminder that Alzheimer's Disease necessitates a united front from healthcare professionals, family members, and support systems to enhance patient outcomes and provide much-needed solace amid the challenges posed by this debilitating condition.
