We offer a free, confidential counselling service to individuals coping with Alzheimer's disease and other dementias. Contact one of our Counselling Program staff to discuss ANY questions or concerns about the disease, such as getting a diagnosis, understanding dementia, immediate and future care, family concerns, and coping strategies. This service is available over the phone, at our office, or in your home.

Information and referrals are provided to help you consider different options in your decision making process. Information can be provided on current issues such as research, treatment and medication, different types of dementia and the progression of the disease. Referrals to agencies within the community can also be given regarding programs and services such as Adult Day Programs, support groups, respite care and placement.

 

Service is available:

  • By Phone : Monday to Friday, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.
  • At Our Office : Monday to Friday, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.
  • In Your Home : Monday to Friday, by appointment only

 

The counselling program is partly funded by a generous donation from The Harry E. Foster Foundation.
