By Rosalind Russell – The Ontario government is investing to help assist with dementia care.
Nipissing MPP Vic Fedeli, MPP says the government is investing $86,100 to connect more people to dementia care, support, and services they need when they need them.
He says the funding will support services delivered by the Alzheimer Society of Ontario’s Sudbury-Manitoulin North Bay & Districts community-based First Link® Care Navigation program.
Fedeli says more than 250,000 are living with dementia in Ontario, and that number is expected to grow.
He adds the funding will have people living with dementia, and their families, with help navigating care, education, and resources.
