Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA)

Introducing the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA): a swift, non-invasive tool for detecting mild cognitive issues. It evaluates attention, memory, language, and more, offering a comprehensive view of cognitive health. Compared to MMSE, MoCA excels with higher sensitivity in detecting mild cognitive problems, while maintaining exceptional specificity.

Naomi Dongelmans, MD has been certified in administering and rating the MoCA test.

Understanding MoCA

The Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) stands as a vital tool in the realm of cognitive assessment. This instrument was meticulously crafted to swiftly screen for mild cognitive dysfunction, making it an invaluable resource for both healthcare professionals and caregivers. MoCA delves into various cognitive domains, including attention and concentration, executive functions, memory, language, visuoconstructional skills, conceptual thinking, calculations, and orientation.
