Cognitive Function Assessment Singapore

Early Detection Matters — Understand, Monitor, and Take Action
Cognitive decline can be subtle — forgetfulness, confusion, difficulty concentrating — but when these changes start interfering with daily life, it could signal something more serious, such as mild cognitive impairment (MCI) or early dementia.
At Regis Medical, we offer cognitive function assessment to assess memory, attention, language, and thinking abilities. Early detection allows for timely medical support, care planning, and better outcomes for both the individual and their loved ones.
What Is a Cognitive Function Assessment?
A cognitive function test is a structured evaluation of brain-related abilities such as:
- Memory (short-term and long-term)
- Attention and focus
- Language skills
- Problem-solving
- Spatial and visual processing
- Orientation (time, place, person)
These tests help detect early signs of neurodegenerative conditions like Alzheimer’s Disease, vascular dementia, and other memory-related issues.
Who Should Consider Cognitive Function Assessment
You may benefit from a cognitive test if you or a loved one:
- Is aged 60 and above
- Has noticed changes in memory or behaviour
- Is forgetting appointments or names more often
- Finds it hard to follow conversations or instructions
- Has a family history of dementia or Alzheimer's
- Is managing chronic conditions like diabetes, hypertension, or stroke
- Needs a baseline cognitive assessment before starting certain medications
- Testing can also be useful as part of a general wellness or ageing assessment.
What to Expect During the Assessment
Our Doctors use clinically validated tools such as the:
- Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE)
- Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) or MoCA XpressO
- Abbrieviated Mental test (AMT)
- Ascertain Dementia 8-item Questionnaire (AD8 or iAD8)
The assessment is:
- Non-invasive and paper-based
- Takes approximately 45-60 minutes
- Conducted in a private and supportive setting
- Followed by a discussion with our doctor about results and next steps
Please book your appointment in advance as the assessment may take up to an hour. The patient should be accompanied by his/her family members.
Benefits of Early Assessment
- Identify issues early before they progress
- Rule out reversible causes of memory loss (e.g. vitamin deficiency, thyroid issues)
- Get a baseline score for future comparison
- Access timely support and intervention
- Enable advance care planning for families
