Temporary workers may work full-time or part-time, depending on the individual case. In some instances, temporary workers receive benefits (such as health insurance), but usually benefits are only given to permanent employees. Not all temporary employees find jobs through a temporary employment agency.
1 Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common cause of dementia in people over age 65 with cause possibly related to amyloid plaques and neurofibrillary tangles.2  Almost all brain functions, including memory, movement, language, judgment, behavior, and abstract thinking, are eventually affected. Huntington's disease is a heredity disorder caused by a faulty gene. 2  Children of those with the disorder have a 50% chance of getting the disease. 3  Symptoms begin in those 30 to 40 years of age, beginning with personality changes such as anxiety and depression.
The greatest known risk factor for Alzheimer's disease is increasing age. Most individuals with the disease are 65 or older, although individuals may develop familial, or early onset Alzheimer's, as early as their 30's and 40's. The likelihood of developing Alzheimer's doubles about every five years after age 65. After age 85, the risk reaches nearly 50 percent.
