Brain Check Baseline (BCB) is a check on your current brain health. IT IS NOT A DIAGNOSIS. It is a cognitive baseline measurement that assesses your current brain functioning so you can know how your brain will age going forward.
Are you experiencing any cognitive changes, or wondering if you are as sharp as you used to be?
Do you have a family member or a client that may be experiencing some cognitive changes?
70% of people want to know EARLY if they are experiencing cognitive decline. Early cognitive assessment with BCB allows the individual to be PROACTIVE with their brain health and prioritize planning for their future. BCB is a ‘PHYSICAL’ FOR YOUR BRAIN much like the annual physical you have each year for your general health.
WHAT IS A COGNITIVE BASELINE:
A cognitive baseline is an initial measurement of your cognitive functioning in a healthy state. This will be used as a reference point for later comparison of cognitive changes that may occur. The best comparison of a person’s cognitive status is to themselves in a healthy state. Without a baseline, healthcare providers have to rely on guesswork in determining where the individual’s functioning should be.
NO MORE ANXIETY
Most people worry that expected cognitive changes mean that they are losing it. People fear that the dementia train has left the station and there is no turning back. The reality is that if you think you are having problems, you likely are not. We all will experience normal age related changes, and BCB puts you ‘in the know’ so that you are in control and in charge of your brain health and your cognitive trajectory.
STRATEGIES FOR BRAIN PRESERVATION
Have you met your brain? - We can ALL do things that will positively affect our brain health. Not all things however are for all people; we are unique in how OUR brain functions. BCB creates a tailored and more targeted approach to creating your brain health lifestyle plan based on your assessment results.
