Are there assessments available for dementia for elders at your site or in the area?

I have an 80 year old mother who is showing some signs that concern me and my siblings about the onset of dementia or other mental impairments, and we would like to have her assessed.

Hi dpalleschi,

We are a national website for family caregivers, not an individual facility or doctor. If you click on the following link you can find a Geriatric Care Manager in your area that can help diagnosis your mother with dementia or Alzheimer's.

Also, here is an article to show the 10 Warning Signs of Alzheimer's and Dementia:
