CU Alzheimer's and Cognition Center COVID-19 Response

January 13, 2022

With the recent increase in COVID-19 cases due to the omicron variant, changes have been made to the CU Alzheimer’s and Cognition Center clinic and research availability. The following adjustments have been made:

 

The University of Colorado Memory Disorders Clinic has expanded the availability of in-person clinic visits, while continuing to offer virtual appointments, based on the provider. To ensure patient safety, all who do attend a visit in-person will continue to be required to wear a mask, comply with check-in procedures, and may bring one guest. If a patient would like to have additional guests participate in the visit, those guests may attend virtually. Our staff will also continue to wear masks. Our staff remains available for our current patients via our answering service (720-848-2080) or through MyHealth Connection.

 

Research studies are enrolling and seeing participants for visits. All study staff will continue to wear masks and will request participants to wear masks for in-person visits. Some complex studies may require that participants be vaccinated to complete in-person visits. For study-specific questions, please contact the coordinator for the study of interest for the latest information regarding enrollment and ongoing visits. If you have any questions, please contact the CU Alzheimer's and Cognition Center at 303-724-7670 or CUAlz@cuanschutz.edu.

 

We appreciate your understanding and patience as we continue to adapt to this rapidly evolving situation. As always, our patients' and our research participants' safety is of the utmost importance to us, and we will always put that first. We will continue to monitor the spread of COVID-19 and will update our research studies and clinical practices accordingly, as necessary.

The CU Alzheimer's and Cognition Center is excited that COVID-19 distribution is underway in Colorado, and that older adults are being prioritized to receive the vaccine. Although the Center is not providing vaccines, we have provided some resources below so that you can stay informed about how the vaccines work and what Colorado's current distribution plan is, as it is frequently being updated. If you have any questions, please contact your Primary Care Provider or the Colorado Department of Public Health.
