\u200bAs your senior\u2019s caregiver, you\u2019re probably concerned about her cognitive health as well as her physical health. There are some signs that can clue you and she into when it might be time to talk to her doctor about her cognitive wellness. Some of these signs are a little more worrying than others, of course, and your senior\u2019s overall health in other ways may impact some of them.<\/p>\n
Forgetting What Day it Is<\/strong><\/p>\n It\u2019s not unusual for a person of any age to periodically forget what day it is and then remember later on.

Keep an eye on her sense of timing and see if small changes like using calendars helps. Stress can affect remembering details like this.<\/p>\n
