Abstract
The global population growth and aging have resulted in an increase in dementia/Alzheimer's disease. This suggests that both geriatric patients and those who care for them must be knowledgeable about the disease to inform appropriate health-seeking behavior on the part of the patient. and diagnosis and care provision by healthcare professionals. This commentary attempts to highlight the preponderance of insufficient knowledge of dementia/Alzheimer's disease among geriatric patients as well as healthcare professionals. It advocates training and retraining primary care professionals (physicians and nurses) in geriatric care/dementia, which will have a ripple effect on patient education and care.
