Paov --
We need to improve and expand publicly funded home care and
end for-profit long-term care!
Today we launched our
Better
Care for Seniors Campaign where hundreds of supporters tuned in to
hear about evidence-based solutions that could transform Seniors Care.
We heard personal stories from seniors, families, and
workers that made it clear that we need change.
Now we're asking you to mail your story and concerns directly to the Minister of Health.
SIGN UP HERE TO SEND A POST CARD TO MINISTER DIX- Once you sign up you will receive a free specially designed post card.
- Write your personal story or your concerns about seniors care on the post card
- Mail it directly to the Minister of Health.
We need a continuum of care that allows seniors to live
independently at home for as long as possible and... provides
person-centered care that supports better quality of life for those
living in residential care.
However, over the past twenty
years home care has been devalued, with access to publicly funded home
care consistently declining in BC since 2001. At the same time,
for-profit long-term care companies have been pocketing public funds
as profits and degrading the standard of care provided in residential
care.
If you are a family member, worker, senior or just a concerned individual: Sign up here to share your story. Once you sign up you will receive a free postcard that you can fill in with your story and mail directly to the Minister of Health.
