Plum Tree Memory Care

It has been such a delight meeting everyone during our recent Plum Tree Better Together LTC training sessions!

Thank you for being part of our program. We hope that after a day of practical, hands-on learning, you feel more confident in working with patients living with memory concerns 💜 Remember, there are 3 more virtual mentorship drop in support sessions if you have any questions 😊

Thank You, Schlegel-UW Research Institute for Aging !

A heartfelt thank you to the Schlegel-UW Research Institute for Aging for hosting Hope, Empowerment, and Living Well With Dementia a couple weeks ago! This event provided an insightful discussion on living well with dementia and the importance of inclusive, supportive communities.

We appreciate the opportunity to be part of this important conversation!

Thank you The Ontario Brain Institute for having us!

We’re grateful to have been a guest at this important event. The ‘Supporting the Elder Brain’ talk highlights a truly meaningful mission—helping individuals and families understand the difference between normal age-related cognitive changes and potential warning signs that may require medical attention.

By fostering awareness and discussing proactive strategies, including social prescribing and early healthcare engagement, events like this empower communities to better support brain health as we age. Thank you for hosting such an impactful conversation!

Dementia affects millions worldwide, but did you know women are at the center of this crisis? They are not only more likely to develop the disease but also provide the majority of care for those living with it. Despite this, the gendered impact of dementia is often overlooked.

In our latest blog, we explore why dementia disproportionately affects women, the challenges they face as caregivers, and what can be done to support them.
