McGill Cares: Rethinking Long-Term Care of Older Adults

Join us on March 16, 2022, at noon for the next McGill Cares webcast to support informal caregivers. During candid, 30-minute interviews with leading experts, Claire Webster explores topics related to caring for a loved one with dementia. 

Rethinking Long-Term Care for Older Adults 

Moira Welsh is an award-winning investigative reporter with the Toronto Star who has written extensively on issues facing seniors, with a focus on long-term care, as well as on issues related to social justice, health and the environment.  Ms. Welsh is the author of Happily Ever Older: Revolutionary Approaches to Long-Term Care, about evolving ways to live in our later years. 

Ms. Welsh will share information about what she’s learned from her years of investigating retirement homes and long-term care facilities in Canada and around the world. She will talk about positive alternatives to what we understand as the norm for long-term care and share ideas about how we can revolutionize care so that seniors can live out their days in dignity and with purpose, energy and love. 

This episode of McGill Cares is made possible by a donation from the Zeller Family Foundation.
