LTC+, a program of Healthcare Excellence Canada, focuses on supporting those who work in long-term care and retirement homes across Canada. LTC+ concentrates especially on pandemic learning and preparedness in a time when staff are managing an unprecedented situation day-to-day, while also trying to plan ahead.
The program is designed to be flexible, so that facilities can access resources to implement change quickly. You can choose from webinars, national huddles, coaching and funding. By joining LTC+, your team joins a community who are facing similar pressures or experiences. As an interactive community, LTC+’s vision is to grow across Canada with members sharing their own lessons and supporting each other.
It’s free to join
