Okay kiddo, let me explain to you what self-administered gerocognitive examination (SAGE) is.
SAGE is a test that helps doctors check how well your brain is working. When we grow older, our brain also grows older and may not work as well as it used to. This is why some older people may have trouble with memory, learning, and other mental abilities.
So, SAGE is like a "brain check-up" that you can take at home. You need to answer some questions and do some tasks that test different areas of your brain, like memory, attention, and problem-solving.
The good thing about SAGE is that it's easy to use and you don't need a doctor to administer it. You can take it on your own or with a family member's help. It's also free and available online.
If you take the test and notice that you're having trouble with some of the tasks or questions, you may want to talk to your doctor about it. They can help you figure out if there's anything wrong and recommend some ways to keep your brain healthy.
So, that's what SAGE is all about. It's a test that helps you check how well your brain is working so you can stay sharp even as you grow older.
