Join us as we sit down with neuropsychologist Dr. Thomas Harding, Clinical Director of the Maui Memory Clinic. Dr. Harding offers insights into the range of cognitive issues that can arise with age, from subjective cognitive impairment (SCI) to mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and dementia, emphasizing the critical nature of early identification. Discover the strategies for managing MCI, whether vascular or Alzheimer’s-related, as Dr. Harding explains how neuropsychologists assess brain function and collaborate with other professionals to deliver comprehensive care.
Our conversation takes a closer look at the comprehensive services offered by the Maui Memory Clinic. Dr. Harding walks us through the neuropsychological assessments that play a key role in evaluating brain function for individuals with memory challenges, Alzheimer's, dementia, or those recovering from strokes and accidents. We discuss the importance of recognizing when age-related forgetfulness becomes more serious, guiding listeners on when to seek professional help. Dr. Harding also shares the significance of neuropsychological evaluations in treatment and rehabilitation planning.
