January is Alzheimer's Awareness Month in Canada💜
This cause is very near and dear to our hearts, as a portion of our clientele is those with Alzheimer's or a related dementia.
In honour of them, this month is for
raising awareness and the impact it has on the individuals, their caregivers
and their families.
By learning more about the importance of proper diagnosis, we hope to one day reduce the stigma in society about their worth and value as people.
Here at NOVA West Island, we are committed to taking a person-centered approach to ensure all West Island residents living with dementia feel valued and empowered, that organizations be inclusive and accessible
and that everyone uses their
awareness of dementia to
make changes, individually
and as a society.
While this campaign ends in February, it is not the case for the people living with these illnesses.
Share these 10 easy ways to fight stigma against dementia.
With understanding and care we can make a difference!
