What is Dementia Screen Evaluation

A dementia screening evaluation is a brief assessment of a patient’s mental and emotional functioning at a given moment in time and is designed to be repeated over time in order to track changes.

The dementia screen battery is comprised of a number of procedures designed to evaluate function in the following domains:

1) general intelligence
2) attention/concentration
3) sensation-perception
4) motor-praxis
5) language
6) new learning and memory
7) higher level cognition-executive function
8) emotional status.

The evaluation also requires a clinical interview with the patient and others individuals who can provide additional information about the patient’s functioning.
