What is Dementia Care?

If you or your loved one are living with dementia, you may experience disorientation or changes in personality that can change your quality of life. Dementia care can provide additional support so you can continue to feel happy and fulfilled.

Every year thousands of Canadians are diagnosed with dementia or Alzheimer’s disease. MP Fortin joined Global News Calgary with information on detecting and dealing with the illness.
