Middlesex Elderly Assessment of Mental State (MEAMS) - Reviews

B.P. Uzzell, PhD, n/a

The Middlesex Elderly Assessment of Mental State (MEAMS) contains carefully selected questions that skilfully examine functioning (orientation, word fluency, comprehension, calculation, constructional skill, recognition and short term memory, visuoperception and sustained attention) in ways patients tolerate easily. I have used it for many years and have gained much knowledge about functioning of the older adult and those that suffer from brain damage. Because maximum information can be obtained in an administration time of about 15 minutes with most patients, the MEAMS is useful in the time restricted climate of managed healthcare in the USA.
