Primacare was the second LTC operator in Ontario to implement this model which focuses on delivering emotion-focused care that connects with people in a dignified, human way.

Additionally, in 2018, Primacare undertook a ground-breaking research project called The Albert Project, to investigate an innovative approach to dementia care that utilizes virtual reality (VR) as a therapeutic intervention for residents with moderate to severe dementia.
