The AGS Cognitive Screening Toolkit includes free open access cognitive screening tests that are recommended by the USPSTF. The toolkit can serve as a resource for clinicians to better understand cognitive screening tools, which have been validated in Primary Care settings and are available for free. This toolkit can help in selecting the appropriate cognitive screening tool to use with primary care patients. Please note that this toolkit is designed to provide information on screening instruments only; it does not include information on tools for diagnosis or staging of cognitive impairment.
