Specialized Support for Memory, Dignity, and Peace of Mind
A dementia diagnosis affects the whole family, bringing unique challenges that require more than just standard care—it requires deep specialized knowledge and infinite patience. At Integracare, we believe that a diagnosis shouldn’t mean the end of joyful moments. Our Dementia Care is designed to support your loved one’s current abilities while providing a safe, familiar environment that reduces anxiety and promotes engagement.
Leaders in Memory Care
We don’t just provide care; we provide specialized expertise that has made us a leader in the Ontario and Toronto home care communities.
- Alzheimer’s Society Partnership: We are the only home healthcare provider in the region to require 100% of our Caregivers to be educated in all four facets of Dementia Care through the Alzheimer’s Society of Toronto.

- Gentle Persuasion Techniques: Our team is trained in specialized communication and behavioral strategies to manage sunndowning, wandering, and resistance to care with grace and dignity.
