In response to an increase in major neurocognitive disorders and Alzheimer’s disease, the Government of Quebec adopted a strategy called Plan ministériel sur la maladie d’Alzheimer et les TNCM (troubles neurocognitifs majeurs).

As part of the plan, across the province resource persons like Julie are helping their healthcare colleagues better understand major neurocognitive disorders, or MND.

They’re becoming clinical mentors for healthcare teams, sharing evidence and best practices for providing MND care and support.

These mentors become allies to people living with an MND and their loved ones, who consequently receive a higher quality of care and better user support services. They also benefit from better collaboration between all community and public stakeholders involved in their journey.
