Contingency and Emergency Planning - a Hybrid event

in partnership with The Ontario Caregiver Organization

Join us virtually or in-person with the Ontario Caregiver Organization, who will show us how to build a contingency emergency plan and strategies for implementation. For adults. Please register.

Caregivers provide an average of 11 to 30 hours of care per week, supporting a family member, spouse, friend or neighbour. The physical and emotional support provided by caregivers is crucial to the health and wellbeing of their care recipient. So what happens when the caregiver needs support? With burnout at an all time high, caregivers need their own support networks and a contingency plan for the person they care for. Join the Ontario Caregiver Organization, who will walk us through how to build a contingency plan and strategies for implementation.
