Dementia is the greatest neurodegenerative disease of our time, and rates are expected to triple in the next 20 years!

In this podcast episode, featuring Tom O’Neill the CEO of Cognivue, we discuss the importance of early screenings for cognitive decline and the prevention of dementia.

Recent reports indicate there are 12 modifiable lifestyle factors that can reduce the risk of dementia, therefore it is critical to implement reliable cognitive screenings in healthcare for older adults.

Specifically, we discussed:
1. The role of cognitive screenings in hearing healthcare (including other medical specialties)
2. How the medical treatment of hearing loss is the #1 modifiable factor for preventing dementia
3. The controversy surrounding the FDA approved drug (Aduhelm) to treat Alzheimer’s
4. Active aging and living your best life after 60!
