At NeuroHear, we believe in taking a holistic approach to hearing health, addressing not only the ears but also the brain. That is why we offer integrated cognitive screenings as part of our comprehensive evaluations for patients in New Jersey and the surrounding communities. We are proud to provide cutting-edge digital cognitive assessments that can detect early signs of cognitive decline. This service is rooted in the growing body of research that links untreated hearing loss with an increased risk of cognitive impairment, including Alzheimer’s disease and dementia. By screening for cognitive changes early, we can take steps to support both hearing and cognitive well-being before more serious issues arise.
What Is a Cognitive Screening?
A cognitive screening is a quick and non-invasive evaluation that helps identify early signs of changes in brain function. At NeuroHear, we utilize digital tools to evaluate cognitive domains, including memory, attention, executive function, and processing speed. These screenings go beyond what a traditional hearing test can reveal by examining how the brain functions in relation to auditory input. The results provide insight into your cognitive strengths and areas that may require support. Incorporating this screening into your hearing evaluation enables us to provide a more complete picture of your brain health and make informed recommendations tailored to your needs.

What Happens During a Cognitive Screening?
Your cognitive screening will be conducted in a calm and private environment as part of your appointment with Dr. Ina Selita. The screening involves a series of simple tasks designed to evaluate various aspects of your cognitive function. These exercises are not difficult and typically take only a few minutes to complete. Dr. Selita will guide you through each step and ensure you feel comfortable throughout the process. Once the screening is complete, we will review your results and explain what they may indicate about your cognitive function. If signs of early cognitive decline are detected, we will offer support and guidance on next steps, which may include further evaluation, hearing solutions, or referrals to other healthcare providers.
Why Are Cognitive Screenings Important?
Hearing and cognition are closely connected. When hearing loss is left untreated, it places greater strain on the brain, which can accelerate cognitive decline over time. By evaluating cognitive function in conjunction with hearing, we can identify individuals at risk earlier and provide early interventions that may help slow or prevent further decline. At NeuroHear, we believe that addressing both hearing and brain health leads to better long-term outcomes. Our goal is to empower you with the knowledge and tools needed to maintain your quality of life through every stage of aging.
