Problem-solving Issues
The inability to solve problems, work with numbers, or follow plans can also indicate the presence of Alzheimer’s disease. In the early stage, patients of this issue tend to have difficulty understanding multi-step issues and complexities. As a result, it might take them a long time making to-do lists or calculating some basic math. When you are driving with then, try asking how to get to a drug store or grocery. Another way to check is to ask them for solving a long division or algebraic issue. These problems often require many steps and might demonstrate problem-solving ability. [2]
