We still consider this promise to be in progress. The Strategy and Action Plan for Alzheimer’s and Dementia is mentionned in the Provincial Health Plan with a released schedueled for fall 2025.
Recent progress has been made with the expansion of the Nursing Home Without Walls program, the forthcoming launch of a Strategy and Action Plan for Alzheimer’s Disease and Dementia, and the optimization of Extra-Mural Program (EMP) services to reduce hospital stays and delay entry into long-term care.

Caring for New Brunswick: Putting People at the Heart of Healthcare
19-Mar-2025
We consider this promise to be “in progress” since there is discussion of investing more money to implement a new action plan for these diseases. When the plan is officially unveiled to the public, we will revise our judgment.
“I am pleased to say, that in the 2025-2026 Budget, we are investing $2.0 million to implement a Dementia Strategy and Action Plan for New Brunswick. These funds will be used to enhance the quality of life for people living with dementia and those that care for them, contribute to dementia prevention, and enable people living with dementia to remain at home for as long as safely possible.”
Driving change, delivering progress

Traces of this promise can be found in the mandate letter addressed to the Minister responsible for Women’s Equality and Seniors, Lyne Chantal Boudreau. Mandate letters define ministerial objectives. Therefore, this promise remains an ongoing priority, and we will monitor its implementation.
