A collective strategic effort by all orders of government, communities & the private sector will be needed to build a sustainable and thriving long term care sector. All hands on deck with a strong collective will be the difference maker.
The National LTC Survey released on Oct. 20 in Ottawa by @CALTC_CA gives evidence to the current status of LTC. It demonstrates that LTC is neither in the same position it was before the pandemic, nor simply recovering from it, it is evolving.

Workers in long term care turn places into homes through their heartfelt dedication and compassion. The connections are real and enduring. @CALTC_CA
Celebrating Continuing Care Month means recognizing & remembering lasting connections made contribute greatly to offering quality care. Nursing homes are not facilities nor buildings- they are truly much more. They become residents’ homes through dignity, respect, compassion.

It is said that the Whale sings the history of Mother Earth. It’s characteristics are similar to the wolf, for they are the whale’s immediate earthly family. They both raise and protect their young, and communicate their thoughts to the world.
Have a Great Day!

The ancestors of the Scots arriving in New Scotland in 1773 via the Ship Hector & other ships were treated with great kindness & guidance by the Mi’kmaq people & would have perished in harsh winters without their friendship. This is a shared history. We are all treaty people.
October is recognized as Mi'kmaq History Month in NS to celebrate the enduring heritage, language & contributions of the L'nu (the people) since time immemorial. The theme for this year is Nepisulti'k- “We are Healing.” NHNSA salutes the many contributions of the Mi’kmaq people
