Abstract

Many countries have answered the call from the World Health Organization, and developed or implemented Alzheimer Plans. Some plans anchored the majority of the care for persons living with dementia in specialized care settings, while others anchored it in primary care. In this article we present the Quebec Alzheimer Plan, which is being implemented in Family Medicine Groups, primary care interdisciplinary clinics, across the Canadian province. The Quebec Alzheimer Plan aims to enable primary healthcare teams of physicians, nurses and/or social workers to provide access to personalized, coordinated assessment and treatment services for people living with dementia and their caregivers. The Quebec Alzheimer Plan enables and empowers primary care clinicians to detect, diagnose, treat and follow-up the vast majority of patients/caregivers. A major strength of the Quebec Alzheimer Plan strategy is the embedded evaluation to inform implementation and its flexibility to allow local adaptations. We are discussing that it is feasible and advantageous to anchor dementia care in an interprofessional primary care setting.
