Ontario’s Strategy for Alzheimer Disease and Related Dementias
Alzheimer Disease is the most common dementia affecting older adults. It is a deteriorating brain disease that eventually kills. In Ontario, more than 100,000 people live with the disease; 90 per cent of those are over the age of 65. With Ontario’s aging population, it is expected that Alzheimer Disease and related dementias will increase significantly in coming years.
