YOUR CONCERN. A CLEARER CONVERSATION.

Repeated forgetfulness or changes in daily tasks can worry the whole family. Bring examples and ask about appropriate assessment.

Before a planned visit, ask which specialist should assess your concern and which existing reports to bring. You do not need to know the diagnosis to ask for help.

Sudden confusion, speech difficulty or new one-sided weakness needs urgent emergency assessment. Do not treat an abrupt change as ordinary forgetfulness.

Concerns to discuss.

  • Repeated questions or missed familiar tasks
  • Changes in concentration noticed by family
  • Memory concerns that affect day-to-day life

What assessment may involve.

A clinician asks about the changes and their effect on daily life. Sleep difficulties, stress and other health problems may contribute. Further specialist assessment or tests depend on the findings.

Questions about care and next steps.

Bring someone who knows your usual routine. Ask about possible causes, the right specialist and next steps. Treatment depends on the cause; this page does not confirm a dedicated memory clinic or dementia programme.

Prepare for your appointment.

  • Write a few examples and when the changes started.
  • Bring previous assessments and a current medicine list.
  • Ask about the right appointment and whether a companion can attend.

Common questions.

Is memory loss always dementia?
No. Memory problems have several possible causes. Seek assessment rather than trying to diagnose the cause yourself.
Should a family member come along?
A companion can help describe changes and bring questions. Check appointment arrangements with the hospital.
Does this hospital have a dedicated memory clinic?
A dedicated memory clinic has not been confirmed. Contact reception to ask about suitable assessment or referral options.
