Dementia: This symptoms that suggest dementia are very serious. There are many types of dementia and also other illnesses with similar symptoms. It is best that you obtain medical attention for your mother and it would help if you find doctors that also understand her native tongue, so they are better able to evaluate her condition.

Dimintia: "Testing" begins with a history and physical examination. It is reasonable to begin by seeing a primary care practitioner, who will refer to a neurologist is indicated. It should be relatively easy to find Vietnamese-speaking doctors in California, unless you live a long way from the coast.
