Many families struggle not because they don’t care, but because clear information wasn’t given early enough.

If you want to understand dementia before fear, overwhelm, or misinformation sets in, start here:👉 https://rosabelzohfeld.com/understanding-dementia/

Most people panic when told they’re “high risk” based on genetic tests, neuropsychological results, or imaging—long before a diagnosis is confirmed. Dementia is not diagnosed by a single test; it is diagnosed through patterns over time, functional changes, and careful clinical evaluation.

I’m Rosabel Zohfeld, a neurology nurse practitioner, and in this episode I explain:
• What genetic testing really means• How neuropsychological tests measure brain function, not disease• Why imaging alone cannot diagnose dementia

This episode is for caregivers, patients, and families feeling overwhelmed by testing, medical language, or anticipatory grief. Understanding replaces fear and helps families plan with clarity.
