The Alzheimer Society of Canada

Currently reports that more than half a million Canadians are grappling with Alzheimer’s disease or other forms of dementia. Shockingly, this figure is predicted to skyrocket by 2038, doubling in size.

For individuals seeking resources tailored to those navigating the complexities of degenerative cognitive conditions, a wealth of information awaits in the Resources section of their website. Here, individuals can find invaluable support and guidance on managing these challenging diagnoses.

The Heart and Stroke Foundation

This is a volunteer-driven charity. It’s on a mission to combat heart disease and stroke through robust research initiatives and the promotion of healthy living. Their advocacy extends to all individuals affected by these diseases, offering lifestyle tips suitable for people of all ages and walks of life.

Veterans Affairs Canada (VAC)

VAC stands as a cornerstone of support for veterans, offering an array of resources to aid in their well-being and quality of life. Among the myriad benefits available, veterans have the opportunity to receive VAC financial assistance to cover the expenses associated with long-term care.

Determining eligibility for these vital support services hinges on a variety of factors, including one’s service history, specific health needs, and other pertinent considerations.
