January is Alzheimer's Awareness Month. Too many people still don’t know where to turn for help. We’re here to talk openly and offer support.

On January 28, 2026, for Alzheimer’s Awareness Month, Alzheimer Societies across Canada are showing up with the Forget-Me-Not flower as a reminder to Forget No One - because no one should face dementia alone.

Supporters are invited to demonstrate solidarity on social media with the hashtag to send a simple but powerful message and combat stigma.

More than a transfer.
Every patient transfer from Trenton Memorial by Alliance isn’t just a journey—it’s a gift of equipment for our hospital.

For every patient transferred by Alliance Patient Transfer from Trenton Memorial Hospital, a donation will be made to the Trenton Memorial Hospital Foundation.
Funds raised will purchase a vital signs monitor—essential equipment that helps our healthcare teams monitor patients and respond quickly when it matters most.

🚨NEW CARBON MONOXIDE ALARM RULES EFFECTIVE JAN. 1🚨

Carbon monoxide (CO) is commonly referred to as the "silent killer." It is colourless, odourless and tasteless. It can only be detected with a working CO alarm, and exposure can cause serious illness or even death.

CO can be produced anytime you burn fuel, and it can move freely through indoor spaces. The new provincial regulations help ensure every resident has the protection they need.

🔔 Stay safe. Stay informed. Make sure your CO alarms are installed and working.
