Cognitive Evaluation Assessment

The Cognitive Evaluation Assessment is a scientifically validated assessment that explores cognitive function.

What is a Cognitive Evaluation Assessment?

This expert assessment explores the cognition of an individual, understanding the functional implications of cognitive strengths and challenges regarding an individual's work role, and work tasks.

The analysis clarifies the functional impact and risks, and how these influence a person's well-being, as well as how it affects their work role and work performance. This cognitive assessment examines cognition and evaluates memory, attention, reasoning, executive function and verbal abilities. It also includes bespoke, person-centred recommendations for workplace adjustments.

The Cognitive Evaluation Assessment is remote (online), but in-person assessments can be arranged, undertaken by a neuropsychologist; additional charges will apply.

Who is a Cognitive Evaluation Assessment for?

Individuals

This assessment has been designed for working age individuals with a neurological diagnosis, and those who are suspected or confirmed to be neurodivergent. It is suitable for those who are at or absent from work.

Support Professionals

The Cognitive Evaluation Assessment is for employers or insurers seeking to understand if an individual is experiencing challenges with cognition, including the impact on function and potential risks.

What is Included in a Cognitive Evaluation Assessment?

This assessment includes:

  • Scientifically validated cognitive assessment
  • Evaluation of impact of cognition on function
  • Adjustment and support recommendations

This assessment does not cover:

  • Recommendations regarding alternative roles
  • Risk analysis specific to environment or job role

If you require the above services that are not covered, we recommend undertaking a Work Capacity Assessment, or a Psychological Needs Assessment. The risk analysis specific to environment or job role is available on request following a Fundamental Vocational Assessment or a Work Capacity Assessment.

The Outcomes of your Assessment

Upon completion of this cognitive function assessment, the individual and referrer will receive a scientifically validated and objective measure report of cognitive funtion, with an exploration of the core aspects of cognition.

The assessment results produce a raw score that is compared to a population of individuals of the same sex and age group, providing a baseline of cognitive function. The occupational therapist will also provide recommendations for treatment plans and, where applicable, for further detailed assessment.

Cognitive Evaluation Assessment recommendations may include suggesting rehabilitation that focuses on cognitive attributes such as memory, planning, and fatigue management, as well as providing workplace adjustment suggestions.

What others says

  • I am always so impressed by the therapist’s commitment to and ongoing understanding of Claire and her situation. I am sure the rest of the family will share my thoughts so please pass on our heartfelt thanks to the therapy team when you next see them. Sister of brain injury survivor
  • I just wanted to drop you a line to say, whenever I call the office, Claire, in particular, is always very charming and efficient. She is a good representative of your company and has a nice phone manner and a good approach to customer service. So, thank you Claire. Mother of brain injury survivor
  • The following will never be enough to illustrate Paul’s journey but we are eternally grateful to the NHS, IM, ILS, Krysalis and the whole infrastructure that has been created for Paul. Yes, Paul is focused, determined and driven but the whole team have created a rehabilitation environment that has changed our life and Pauls future, they have made the thought of life and rehabilitation, turn from the impossible to the possible. Brother of brain injured survivor
  • The thought of having the family undertake this journey alone seems impossible and we will be always grateful. We all recognise that James is still on the rehabilitation journey, but there is no stopping him. He has just walked to Mum’s & Dad’s on his own (phone first to say he’s on his way)... what a way to celebrate the 2-year journey.Brother of brain injured survivor
  • I highly recommend Krysalis Consultancy OT services. Anna has been our life line since she came on board to help my husband following his brain injury. He has improved greatly thanks to Anna’s input in assisting him to become independent, teaching him step by step the simple things which we all take for granted. Anna is there for us 100%, teaching us both strategies to enable us to achieve better results.Wife of brain injured survivor
  • Just a short note to thank you very much for your hard work and persistence over the last few months, your guidance has undoubtedly helped and taken the pressure off me (I have benefited from the sessions greatly). I am really encouraged by the last few weeks and optimistic that if Peter keeps working at it he will continue to make good progress.Brother of brain injured survivor
