National Memory Screening Day, is an annual initiative spearheaded by the Alzheimer's Foundation of America (AFA) in collaboration with community organizations. The organization promotes early detection of memory problems as well as Alzheimer's disease and related illnesses, and encourages appropriate intervention.

A memory screening test is a significant first step toward finding out if a person may have a memory problem. If you are, or a loved one is, becoming forgetful, are finding it increasingly difficult to concentrate, or are having trouble recalling words in conversations, you should consider taking a memory screening test. Read more about who should consider screening.

Developed by Dr. Wesson Ashford of Stanford University and the Palo Alto Veterans Administration after a decade of studying memory related issues, dementia and Alzheimer's disease, MemTrax takes just 3-5 minutes and can be the first important step in screening for memory related issues.
