Self Referral

If you or your family member has been diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease or another type of dementia, First Link® is for you.

First Link® will help you to:

  • Get connected early and support you throughout your journey
  • Learn about every step of the journey; from diagnosis to day-to-day living
  • Connect to Alzheimer Society programs, and other community and health care services

Anyone can make a referral to First Link®; the individual diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease or other dementias and their families.  You do not need a referral from a physician or other health care professional to access the community of support available.
