Memory clinics

Memory clinics are specialized healthcare centers that assess, diagnose, and manage conditions related to memory loss and cognitive decline, such as Alzheimer’s disease or other dementias. They typically involve a team of professionals—including doctors, neuropsychologists, and nurses—who evaluate a person's memory, thinking skills, and overall mental function through tests and discussions. The goal is to identify the cause of memory problems, provide appropriate support or treatments, and plan for ongoing care. These clinics help patients and families understand the condition and access resources to improve quality of life.
