Since brain conditions affect many different bodily processes, care providers must often work frequently with other health and wellness professionals in their treatment. These include speech, occupational, and physical therapists, social workers, psychiatrists, psychologists, neurologists, and primary care physicians. Due to the multidisciplinary nature of neuropsychology, proper coordination of care is particularly important. Cooperation with other professionals helps ensure the highest quality of patient care.
A good neuropsychologist ensures that patients receive comprehensive evaluations. This means performing screenings for disorders that affect cognitive functions. The conditions often identified in evaluations include memory disorders, traumatic brain injuries, epilepsy, brain tumors, and multiple sclerosis, among others. Evaluation and screening results can then be used to diagnose and develop treatment and management plans.
