Neuropsychological testing for seniors involves a comprehensive assessment of cognitive functions to identify potential issues such as dementia, mild cognitive impairment (MCI), or other neurological disorders. These tests help in understanding an individual's cognitive strengths and weaknesses, aiding in diagnosis, treatment planning, and monitoring progress over time.
MSMHS offers comprehensive testing for older adults with concerns such as:
Memory and Cognitive changes (to include questions of normal cognitive decline vs cognitive impairment)
Dementia/Alzheimer’s
Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) and Brain Tumor
Cognitive decline secondary to medical conditions such as Stoke/Cerebrovascular Disease/Parkinsons
MSMHS offers compassionate and patient-centered assessments that are tailored to the individual’s needs, questions, concerns and health. If you are a caregiver looking for neuropsychological assessment for your parent, partner, or other loved one, expect to be part of the interview process for testing. Caregivers can provide information and insights to best understand the patient’s brain function, which considers the whole picture and helps to inform treatment and care moving forward.
Neuropsychological testing for seniors plays a critical role in understanding cognitive health. By identifying issues early, families and caregivers can make informed decisions regarding treatment and support, enhancing the quality of life for the individual affected. If you suspect cognitive decline in an elderly individual, contact us about the appropriate testing process for your loved one.
