FAQs
What is a dementia test and what does it assess? 
A dementia test screens for early signs of cognitive decline. It evaluates memory, attention, language, problem-solving, and other thinking abilities that may be affected by conditions like Alzheimer’s disease or other types of dementia.
Who should consider taking a dementia screening test?
Anyone experiencing noticeable memory lapses, confusion, difficulty concentrating, or changes in reasoning or communication should consider taking a dementia test—especially if symptoms worsen over time or interfere with daily life.
What are common early signs of dementia?
Early symptoms can include forgetfulness, repeating questions, struggling with familiar tasks, difficulty finding words, misplacing items, confusion about time or place, and changes in mood or personality.
How does an online dementia test work?
Online dementia tests involve simple questions or tasks designed to highlight possible cognitive problems. While not diagnostic, they help identify whether further evaluation may be needed.
Can dementia be detected in its early stages with an online test?
Yes. While online tests can’t diagnose dementia, they can pick up on subtle early warning signs. Early detection is key to managing symptoms and planning for future care.
Is the dementia test suitable for older adults?
Yes. The test is primarily aimed at adults aged 50 and over, although anyone with memory or cognitive concerns can take it. It’s particularly helpful for families noticing changes in a loved one.
How long does a dementia screening take?
Most online tests take 10 to 15 minutes to complete. They are user-friendly and designed to be accessible even to people with mild memory difficulties.
Can I take the test on behalf of a loved one?
Yes. If you’re concerned about someone’s cognitive health and they are unable or unwilling to complete the test themselves, you may take it based on your observations—though a professional assessment is still essential.
Are dementia test results private and secure?
Yes. Test results are kept strictly confidential and comply with UK data protection regulations. Your responses are not shared without your permission.
What should I do if the test suggests signs of dementia?
If the test indicates cognitive decline, you should book an appointment with a GP or memory specialist. A full clinical assessment may include medical history, physical exams, and more detailed memory testing.
