Ontario Shores has teamed up with the Alzheimer Society of Durham Region to offer more families vital training through its VR-SIM Carers program, which uses virtual reality to simulate dementia care scenarios. This initiative aims to equip caregivers with the skills and confidence they need to support loved ones living with dementia more effectively. The collaboration underscores the growing need for accessible, innovative care training as the dementia population continues to rise, highlighting the importance of community support in mental health care.
