Illness Roadmaps
As part of the Key Zoom Out, we talk about the beginning, middle and late stage of every illness. We often get asked for this roadmap. With support from Health Canada, we have developed some for particular diseases. We worked with Health Care Providers, Patients and Families to make these roadmap tools to help you be more informed, more hopeful and more prepared.
Alzheimer's Roadmap
Page One of this Roadmap was designed to help you get a birds eye view of your illness. It will help you understand where you are in your illness to allow for open conversations between patient, family/ caregivers and health care teams to talk about where things are at now and what to expect later. Revisit this roadmap over time.
Page two is the Planning Roadmap. It was designed to help those who want more detailed information at ALL the stages. It will help you understand what key life changes to expect and what to prepare for. It can be used with or by healthcare providers to discuss the things most relevant for you so you can customize your care plan and decision making.
