Seniors Health Care
Seniors counsellors offer a range of services in a culturally sensitive manner. Their aim is to help seniors remain independent in the community for as long as possible, through counselling, support, education and linkage to other services. Social Workers and Counsellors also assist families in providing care giving for their aging relatives and friends.
Seniors Services include:
- Counselling
- Needs assessment
- Case management
- Information and referral
- Planning for the future
- Advocacy
- Outreach
- Coordinating services in the home
- Community development
