What is First Link?

First Link is a partnership program with health care professionals and the Alzheimer Society of Toronto to ensure that individuals and families dealing with dementia receive support and information throughout the course of the disease.  First Link partners include family physicians, geriatric specialists, pharmacists, social service workers in health facilities and community agencies and staff working in family practice.

Here's What You Do

• Ask your patient or their family member’s permission to forward his/her name to the
  Alzheimer Society of Toronto.
• Complete the Referral Form and let us know by fax, email or phone that you would like us
  to contact them. You can also complete the First Link Online Referral Form.

Here's What We'll Do

• A counsellor will call the person you refer to us to offer support and information.
• We'll send you a letter to let you know that the First Link has been made.

Can we count on you?
