Brain Health Assessment
Research interventionists, who will be trained and licensed health practitioners (e.g., social workers), will ask participants about changes in memory or thinking and daily function, screen for depression, and administer a standard cognitive screening test. Research interventionalists will use a standardized note template to document results in the participant's EHR. Research interventionists will notify participants and PCPs if follow-up is recommended.
