And we know that to succeed it will take all of “us” – including health providers on the front lines serving patients and families. Like you, we want optimize brain health and support early detection and intervention, especially for those at highest risk such as communities of color and women. We understand that addressing memory concerns and providing care for the complex challenges that cognitive impairment brings can be challenging. And we have heard from health providers that you need information and better tools.</p><p>We developed BrainGuide to help address this need for better resources. Here you will find information you can share with patients about ways to reduce their risk for dementia, resources to help address the unique needs communities of color, and tools to help you share BrainGuide with your patients. BrainGuide is free, available in English and Spanish and allows people to take a memory questionnaire for themselves or a loved one.

I have found that this free resource, created by UsAgainstAlzheimer’s, provides helpful information about cognitive health and memory concerns.</p><p>BrainGuide is free and easy-to-access – in English and Spanish – online at <a class="ui red link" href="https://mybrainguide.org/">MyBrainGuide.org</a> and by phone at <b>855-272-4641</b>. BrainGuide provides memory questionnaires that you can take on behalf of yourself or someone you care about. Once the questionnaire is complete, BrainGuide offers a set of tailored resources based on the answers you provide. Privacy is protected, and responses are not recorded or shared with anyone. BrainGuide does not provide a diagnosis, only a doctor can do that with more information.</p><p>Resources may include tips for keeping your brain healthy, information about screening and detection, ideas for how to raise the topic with your loved ones and providers, and links to local resources. BrainGuide will help you take the first steps in your brain health journey with confidence.</p><p>Thanks very much and please <a class="ui red link" href="/contact/">contact us</a> with any questions.</p></div><div class="ui topPadded"><div class="ui blue segment"><h2 class="ui white header">Digital and Print Materials</h2></div><div class="ui topPadded"><h2 class="ui red header topPadded">Resources</h2><div><div class="ui providerResourceContainer"><div><a class="ui red link providerResourceText" target="_blank" href="https://www.usagainstalzheimers.org/sites/default/files/Recommendations_Summary_12.8.21_v2.pdf">Primary Prevention Recommendations to Reduce the Risk of Cognitive Decline - English</a><p class="ui topPadded">Click on the image to access a downloadable file.</p></div><div class="ui providerResourcesImage"><a loading="lazy" target="_blank" class="ui image" href="https://www.usagainstalzheimers.org/sites/default/files/Recommendations_Summary_12.8.21_v2.pdf"><img width="168" height="219" alt="BrainGuide Resources" src="/images/providerToolkit/Provider-Toolkit-Resource1.webp"/></a></div></div><div><img loading="lazy" width="100%" src="/images/providerToolkit/ResourceLine.svg" alt="Grey dividing line" class="ui image"/></div></div><div><div class="ui providerResourceContainer"><div><a class="ui red link providerResourceText" target="_blank" href="https://www.usagainstalzheimers.org/sites/default/files/Summary_Espa%C3%B1ol_12.8.21_v2.pdf">Primary Prevention Recommendations to Reduce the Risk of Cognitive Decline - Spanish</a><p class="ui topPadded">Click on the image to access a downloadable file.</p></div><div class="ui providerResourcesImage"><a loading="lazy" target="_blank" class="ui image" href="https://www.usagainstalzheimers.org/sites/default/files/Summary_Espa%C3%B1ol_12.8.21_v2.pdf"><img width="168" height="219" alt="BrainGuide Resources" src="/images/providerToolkit/Provider-Toolkit-Resource2.webp"/></a></div></div><div><img loading="lazy" width="100%" src="/images/providerToolkit/ResourceLine.svg" alt="Grey dividing line" class="ui image"/></div></div><div><div class="ui providerResourceContainer"><div><a class="ui red link providerResourceText" target="_blank" href="https://www.usagainstalzheimers.org/sites/default/files/rrwg_infographic_12.8.21_v2.png">Reduce the Risk of Cognitive Decline: What Clinicians Can Do to Help Patients - English</a><p class="ui topPadded">Click on the image to access a downloadable file.</p></div><div class="ui providerResourcesImage"><a loading="lazy" target="_blank" class="ui image" href="https://www.usagainstalzheimers.org/sites/default/files/rrwg_infographic_12.8.21_v2.png"><img width="168" height="219" alt="BrainGuide Resources" src="/images/providerToolkit/Provider-Toolkit-Resource3.webp"/></a></div></div><div><img loading="lazy" width="100%" src="/images/providerToolkit/ResourceLine.svg" alt="Grey dividing line" class="ui image"/></div></div><div><div class="ui providerResourceContainer"><div><a class="ui red link providerResourceText" target="_blank" href="https://www.usagainstalzheimers.org/sites/default/files/rrwg_infographic_espa%C3%B1ol_12.8.21_v2.png">Reduce the Risk of Cognitive Decline: What Clinicians Can Do to Help Patients - Spanish</a><p class="ui topPadded">Click on the image to access a downloadable file.</p></div><div class="ui providerResourcesImage"><a loading="lazy" target="_blank" class="ui image" href="https://www.usagainstalzheimers.org/sites/default/files/rrwg_infographic_espa%C3%B1ol_12.8.21_v2.png"><img width="168" height="219" alt="BrainGuide Resources" src="/images/providerToolkit/Provider-Toolkit-Resource4.webp"/></a></div></div><div><img loading="lazy" width="100%" src="" alt="" class="ui image"/></div></div></div></div><div class="ui topPadded"><h2 class="ui red header topPadded">Postcard</h2><p>This BrainGuide postcard is perfect for any direct distribution needs, whether it be through mail or in person.
