    Neurologic Disorders

    Many people at risk of cognitive decline are not able to make visits to a medical clinic, due to factors such as lack of transportation, impaired mobility, and cost. This study will assess ways to evaluate cognitive function at a person's residence. Participants must be 75 or older, and additional criteria apply.

    The research site is in Sun City, Ariz.
