What is BrainGuide?

BrainGuide™ by UsAgainstAlzheimer’s is a first-of-its-kind, free platform that empowers people with knowledge and resources to take the best next steps in managing their own or a loved one’s brain health. BrainGuide helps people get started with confidence, wherever they are, in their brain health journey.

What does BrainGuide include?

BrainGuide includes a confidential memory questionnaire - taken over the phone or online in English or Spanish-followed by tailored education and resources based on the answers provided. The memory questionnaires can be self-administered or taken by a caregiver. BrainGuide is not intended to diagnose or make treatment recommendations regarding Alzheimer’s or any other disease.

How does BrainGuide work?

The BrainGuide memory questionnaire can be completed as a self-administered questionnaire or completed out by a caregiver or someone close to you. Each person who uses BrainGuide receives a set of resources that are tailored to their responses. These resources address risk-reduction approaches, ways to check memory concerns, how to support a family member, or ways to take action after a diagnosis of mild cognitive impairment (MCI) or Alzheimer’s disease. BrainGuide will help you understand early signs or symptoms of memory loss, Alzheimer’s or other dementias.

How does BrainGuide help in the fight against Alzheimer’s?

UsAgainstAlzheimer’s is launching BrainGuide to accelerate the next stage of the Alzheimer’s movement. It follows key scientific advances in risk reduction, greater understanding of the importance of brain health, and growing public awareness of Alzheimer’s to empower everyone to take steps to maintain their brain health.

I haven’t been diagnosed with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) or Alzheimer’s. Is BrainGuide right for me?

Yes. BrainGuide helps you wherever you are in your brain health journey. It can help anyone interested in protecting their brain health and reducing their risk for cognitive decline, or those concerned about a family member.

The memory questionnaire is just one part of BrainGuide. The BrainGuide website offers a resource library where you can explore more information about brain health, mild cognitive impairment (MCI), and Alzheimer’s disease. Explore the brain resource center on mybrainguide.org. It’s important to know that you do not have to complete a memory questionnaire to access these resources.

You can sign up for a 30-day Brain Health Challenge for daily tips on brain healthy activity, and BrainGuide can also provide information on identifying early symptoms of Alzheimer’s, so you can spot early signs of cognitive decline and take action. BrainGuide is not intended to diagnose or make treatment recommendations regarding Alzheimer’s or any other disease.

For those taking care of loved ones, the BrainGuide resource center has resources on how you can provide the best care, while meeting your own needs.
