McGill Cares is recognizing Alzheimer’s Awareness Month 2022 by inviting the Alzheimer Society of Montreal to share information about their services.

Jeane Day has been the Executive Director of the Alzheimer Society of Montreal (ASM) since January 2021. She has a strong background in the health care and non-profit sectors.   Marie Christine Le Bourdais is Director of Programs and Services at the ASM.  She has a degree in gerontology and nearly 20 years of experience working with seniors. For the past decade, her work has focused on clients with neurocognitive disorders, family care partners and professionals in the health and social services network.

Ms. Day and Ms. Le Bourdais speak about the ASM’s state-of-the-art intervention, care and support services and how they help people in Montreal live well with dementia.

This episode of McGill Cares is made possible by a donation from the Zeller Family Foundation.
