Alzheimer's Society of Ireland

Abstract:

The purpose of this booklet is to offer general information about Alzheimer's Disease and other dementias, and to highlight their early signs and symptoms. It offers a number of tools that can be helpful in establishing whether you or someone you care for is experiencing memory problems, and there is a diary at the back of this book to help track and record various changes that you or the person you love maybe experiencing. This booklet also contains details of what steps to take next if you are concerned about someone, how a diagnosis is made, what to do if you or someone close is diagnosed with Alzheimer's Disease, and outlines the various treatments that are available. Understanding Alzheimer's Disease also focuses on the importance of the role of the carer, explains carer stress, and offers some useful suggestions for reducing the stress that can build up when caring for someone full-time.

Information, based on eye-witness accounts from 1995 and the age structure of zebra mussels sampled during October and November 1997, suggests they first became established in the region between southern Lough Derg and Limerick Docks. The species expanded its range during 1996 to include most of Lough Derg and by 1997 had settled in the remaining north-eastern region of the lake.

Food Safety Authority of Ireland (FSAI)

Abstract:

DISEASE FROM FARM ANIMALS Farmers, vets and others who work with animals or their products are at a higher risk of contracting certain diseases from animals than the general population. Infectious diseases that can be contacted from animals are called zoonoses. Even healthy animals can transmit zoonoses to people either directly or indirectly. Many of the diseases listed below do not usually cause serious illness in healthy adults, however, they can be extremely serious in certain groups of people including: • very young and elderly people • people with suppressed immune systems • pregnant women. Common diseases that can be transferred from animals to humans include: • Salmonella • Campylobacter • Verocytotoxigenic E. coli (VTEC), including E.coli O157 • Listeria • Toxoplasmosis, Leptospirosis, Q Fever, Brucellosis, Cryptosporidiosis, Tuberculosis (TB).
