Memory Assessment Center Overview

The Memory Assessment Center is a specialty consult program dedicated to providing support to patients with dementia and cognitive decline. The Memory Assessment Center collaborates with the patient’s primary care physician to provide highly coordinated care.

On the day of the visit, patients can typically expect:

• A cognitive and/or neuropsychological evaluation
• A functional assessment
• A medication, lab work, and imaging review
• A physical examination
• A summary care conference to discuss initial impressions, treatment recommendations, and next steps

Each initial visit will be approximately 90 minutes and having a family member or close friend accompanying the patient is highly recommended.
