Memory Care Services
The Missouri Memory Center in the CMH Neurology and Headache Center features a multi-disciplinary team of experts. They diagnose and treat patients with memory problems related to dementia, Alzheimer’s disease and other neuropsychological issues.
Impaired memory has many different causes, including some that may improve with specific treatments. Sometimes memory loss can be part of Alzheimer’s disease or other forms of dementia. The best time to get to the bottom of memory issues is when the symptoms are still mild.

- Neurological examination
- Cognitive evaluations
- Imaging and other neurodiagnostic studies
- Neuropsychological testing
- Medication review
- Behavioral assessments
- Physical and occupational therapy

Help for You or a Loved One
If you have concerns about yourself or a loved one, we can help with compassionate care and advanced treatment options. Patients come to receive help due to a wide range of memory concerns. They may have trouble understanding why they are not functioning as efficiently at work. They may also wonder if they have a more serious problem, such as dementia.
The Missouri Memory Center sees many different levels of memory concerns and many different age groups of patients.
CMH also has memory care units within its skilled nursing facilities. Staff in these special units meet the specific needs of patients with advanced stages of Alzheimer's disease and dementia.
