Manitoba’s Framework for Alzheimer’s Disease and Other Dementias

Produced by the Government of Manitoba, Manitoba’s Framework for Alzheimer’s Disease and Other Dementias serves as a roadmap for the continued planning and investment to improve the care and support of Manitobans with dementia and their families/caregivers. 

The framework developed 5 responses to dementia care which highlight provincial strategic objections.

• Raising Awareness and understanding
• Early recognition and Initial Assessment and Diagnosis
• Management, care and support
• End of Life Care
• Research and Evaluation

Within each response, the government has highlighted current gaps in service, as well as potential opportunities for care.  The report also highlights some of the advancements that have been made in Manitoba in the last 10 years in regards to dementia care.
