The Memory Treatment Program
The Memory Treatment Program provides clinicians with a targeted way of using the Scientific Brain Training PRO exercises to treat memory impairment. Exercises in this program have been utilized by the Alzheimer's Treatment & Memory Training Centers of America for nearly a decade to treat more than one thousand patients suffering from early stage Alzheimer's disease, Mild Cognitive Disorder and other causes of memory impairment. The Memory Treatment Program has been developed in partnership with MTCA's Director of Operations and Clinical Training, Dr. Bruce Brotter, who has supervised clinicians' use of these exercises with individuals experiencing memory impairment at more than 30 Assisted Living/ Senior Retirement communities as well as free-standing out-patient Centers nationwide.
Professionals are able to utilize the program according to the clearly-defined configurations already established, or can manually control the level of difficulty and select specific exercises to meet the individual needs of each patient. Since this is a program to be used by mental health professionals who are licensed and certified to treat patients suffering from memory impairment, clinicians are urged to visit the MTCA website and complete a certification form, free of charge.
In order to develop the clinical expertise required to administer the program with optimal effectiveness, clinicians are also encouraged to obtain a manual and seek additional training and consultation from MTCA. These services can be purchased on the MTCA website. The training manual provides: demonstration of a model memory training session via an hour-long DVD; recommendations for initial evaluation procedures; and recommendations for a cognitive battery to determine patient level of memory impairment and inform treatment planning.
