You walk into a room and can’t remember why. You watch a movie and can’t recall the name of its famous star. You lose your train of thought in a conversation and ask, “What were we just talking about?”

People often call these “Alzheimer’s moments.” It’s said in jest, but beneath the humor, there’s usually a little concern. Such small lapses, though, are nothing to be concerned about. They’re simply a natural part of aging.

So what are the differences between these minor memory lapses and the signs of serious cognitive decline caused by Alzheimer’s disease and other forms of dementia? Here’s a simple guide.

Meet Issaiah Taylor, one of our amazing cooks at Primrose, who joined the team last August!

"I love being at Primrose because I get to help those around me and bring a positive attitude to lift others up and support them as much as I can. It’s incredibly fulfilling to know I can make a difference and see our residents and coworkers smile—having that positivity reflect throughout their day, every day."

Happy National Assisted Living Week!

Established by the National Center for Assisted Living (NCAL) in 1995, National Assisted Living Week® provides a unique opportunity for residents, their loved ones, staff, volunteers, and the surrounding communities to recognize the role of assisted living in caring for America’s seniors and individuals with disabilities. The annual observance encourages assisted living communities around the country to offer a variety of events and activities to celebrate the individuals they serve, as well as to help educate members of the public about this distinctive aspect of long term care.

There’s a quiet truth that’s gaining attention more and more these days: love doesn’t retire. In fact, for many people, their 60s and beyond bring some of the most authentic, heartwarming, and fulfilling relationships of their lives. Whether you’ve lost a spouse, been through a divorce, or simply spent time focusing on yourself, opening your heart to dating again can be both exciting and rewarding.

Dating after 60 is not about “starting over.” It’s about continuing your story—with new experiences and perhaps even a new outlook. You’re wiser. You’ve weathered life’s storms. And now, with more clarity, confidence, and compassion, you can pursue connection without the pressure that often comes with youth.
