  • Confirm or clarify a diagnosis
  • Provide a profile of strengths and weaknesses to guide rehabilitation, educational, vocational or other services
  • Clarify what compensatory strategies would be helpful
  • Assist in making decisions about appropriate living environments, the ability to safely operate a motor vehicle and competency to responsibly make medical, legal and financial decisions
