Every day, people living with dementia and other memory disorders go undiagnosed or under-treated, placing avoidable strain on individuals and their families.
MINT Memory Clinics are helping to close these gaps by offering timely access to compassionate memory care and navigational supports, all in one place that’s close to home.
Dr. Linda Lee
As a family physician with expertise in caring for the elderly, Dr. Linda Lee recognized gaps in care for people living with memory difficulties, including dementia. Together with her team in Kitchener-Waterloo, Ontario, she created MINT Memory Clinics, an integrated, team-based model of care that helps build capacity and improve access to high-quality memory care.
MINT MEMORY CLINICS
At MINT Memory Clinics, you and your family are supported by a multispeciality, interprofessional team of family doctors, nurses, social workers, pharmacists and others that is specially trained in caring for people living with dementia and other memory difficulties. The team also works closely with your own family doctor, and with members of community groups like the Alzheimer’s Society, and specialist physicians to ensure
your care needs are met.
