The Moe Levin Day Centre offers rehabilitation services and cognitive stimulation therapy to adults aged 65 and over with mild to moderate cognitive deficits and functional impairment associated with a major neurocognitive disorder. The six-week program is delivered either onsite at the Institute or virtually by videoconference. Its aim is to maintain social skills, promote healthy lifestyle habits, increase self-esteem, and foster a sense of well-being, with the goal of delaying the need for long-term residential care.
Access to services is available
- Through an internal request for those already being followed by Geriatric Psychiatry at the Douglas Institute;
- Through the combination of a medical referral and a request completed by a case manager at a CLSC located in the regions served by the Institute.
The request must be sent by fax: 514-888-4451 or by e-mail: [email protected]
Services include:
- Cognitive remediation/cognitive stimulation therapy

The team consists of recreation therapists and occupational therapists.
