Every day 1000 Canadians turn 65. Every day 9 people are diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease. Every day one in two people over 50 will need long-term care of some description. Even though Canada is a wonderful country in which to live, our health care system presents its own set of problems and barriers, particularly to ageing Canadians. In this session, we will examine what it's really like to age, and how Canadians can better prepare and plan ahead for “the golden years.” A wide range of resources is included for ongoing reference and learning. This session will benefit you, your clients, and your family.
