SPA-LTC will be hosting our second webinar for innovative dementia care in Canada.

Our next speaker is Andrew Karesa. Andrew is a member of the Muskeg Lake Cree Nation and a proud husband and father of two young sons.

After witnessing how his family coped to support his grandmother with her Alzheimer’s diagnosis, Andrew realized he needed to take action. This inspired the creation of blueBell Village, aimed at Restoring the Personhood and Independence of those living with dementia™. With blueBell, Andrew has seen lives transformed for both individuals living with dementia and their caregivers, and he is passionate about fostering a world where care is tailored to each individual’s needs.

Additionally, he is pursuing his doctorate at the Haskayne School of Business at the University of Calgary, focusing his research on Indigenous entrepreneurship in the health sector to enhance Indigenous involvement in this field. Andrew also holds an MBA from the University of Alberta. Before founding blueBell Village, he worked as a practicing engineer in the energy sector.
