The Dougherty Ferry Assisted Living & Memory Care team uses an assessment called the St. Louis University Mental Status Exam (SLUMS), an 11-question screening questionnaire used to help understand neurocognitive impairment. Mild dementia can be a natural effect of aging, whereas more severe dementia might mean that Memory Care is a better option. Our number one goal is for you or your loved one to receive the appropriate care needed in an environment that still provides the chance to thrive.
