User reviews

Not A good point of care tool

Good description of dementia, risk factors, differentials but does not have a build in tools to use to evaluate patients Was hoping to get a mini metal status exam calculator but got a description instead

Response from developer

Great suggestion! We are working on adding some tools for patient assessment. At the time the app was created, the MMSE was copyrighted and had strict rules for use. However, since then, there seems to be some changes to the legal use, and if possible, we will add an MMSE assessment tool, as well as the MoCA.
