Join us on November 25 at noon for the next webcast in our weekly series, McGill Cares, designed to support informal caregivers. During candid, 30-minute interviews with leading experts, Claire Webster, Alzheimer Care Consultant and Founder of the McGill Dementia Education Program, will explore topics related to caring for a loved one with dementia.

Dementia Care around the World

Previously she was a Non-Executive Director of the Non-Communicable Disease Alliance (NCDA), a Trustee of Shelter (a housing charity), and a Trustee of Museums, Libraries and Archives Council (MLA) London.

Ms. Barbarino will speak about dementia planning on a global scale. She will discuss the type of education and support that persons living with dementia and their loved ones receive around the world, and share her thoughts on where we can find hope for the future.
