IntroductionAlzheimer’s disease is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder that affects an estimated 6.9 million Americans today, a figure expected to rise significantly with population aging [1]. As the most common cause of dementia, Alzheimer’s is a leading contributor to disability and dependency among older adults, placing an immense burden, both mental and fiscal, on patients, families, and healthcare systems. In 2023, over 11 million informal and unpaid caregivers in the U.S. provided 18.4 billion hours of care, valued at $346.6 billion [1].
