Help Develop Ontario's Dementia Care Strategy
Date: 2016-10-05
Ontario is launching consultations across the province to help develop a new dementia strategy, which will improve access to quality care for people living with dementia and boost support for those who care for them.
The Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care is inviting Ontarians to share their views on the new strategy through an online survey and will hold in-person consultations this fall.
Public input is being sought on key issues, including:
- Providing supports to help people with dementia live well
- Ensuring access to the right information and services at the right time
- Coordinating care between health care and other service providers
- Supporting care partners with their caregiving responsibilities
- Having a well-trained workforce to provide dementia care
- Raising awareness and reducing stigma about brain health and dementia.
Share your views by completing the online survey.
