Why Should I Get Screened for Memory Loss?
Memory screenings are a first step toward addressing concerns about memory loss. While memory screening is not the only tool used to diagnose Alzheimer’s disease or related dementias, it can help identify any brain health concerns.
Early detection and treatment can slow the progression of memory loss and other symptoms related to dementia so that you can continue to have a high quality of life.
Memory screenings can also be reassuring and serve as a benchmark for monitoring your brain health over time.

What Should I Expect?
A memory screening evaluates your memory and other brain functions to determine your strengths and any deficiencies that may need to be addressed.
These memory screenings are an assessment tool, not a diagnostic tool. That means you won’t walk away with a clinical diagnosis but with information you can share with your doctor.
What Happens Next?
Our basic memory screenings also include a consultation with our knowledgeable staff about resources on maintaining brain health throughout your lifespan.
The Alzheimer’s Alliance of Smith County will partner with you throughout the process with more information, referrals, and next steps.
