Cognitive Assessment
Cognitive Assessment measures how well a patient’s brain processes information. Conducted by a psychologist or neuropsychologist, the assessment includes standardized tests that evaluate memory, attention, problem-solving, language, and executive functioning.
​
The assessment may involve paper-based tasks, computerized tests, and clinical interviews. It helps determine the presence and extent of cognitive impairment, especially after brain injuries, neurological events, or mental health concerns.​

This assessment is essential for patients who:
-

-
Struggle with memory, concentration, or decision-making,
-
