Memory Screenings

At CLASS, Inc., we are sensitive to the possible anxiety of both the person being screened and their family members. Rest assured that your experience with us will be a pleasant one. Our office staff is warm and friendly. We provide complimentary hot and cold beverages plus snacks. Our screening room is private and comfortable with beautiful waterfront and mountain views. Feel free to bring family or a special friend with you. Our caring speech therapists are upbeat and enjoyable to chat with; your time with us will be enjoyable.

Your memory screening will consist of a series for questions and tasks selected by the Alzheimer Foundation of America to test memory, language skills, thinking ability and other intellectual functions.* Our speech therapists present these items in a pleasant, conversational style so that you will feel confident and relaxed. You will receive your confidential screening results bring to your doctor for follow-up and/or inclusion in medical files, or we can send them to your physician for you.

* Screening tools identified by AFA's Medical, Scientific and Memory Screening Advisory Board include the GPCOG (General Practitioner Assessment of Cognition), MINI-COG, MIS (Memory Impairment Screen) and BAS (Brief Alzheimer's Screening). These four tests meet accepted criteria and are validated by research.
