Course Description

To complicate things, COVID-19 has shown us how unprepared our long term health care system is for an influx of those needing care. To help address these and other worries many of us have, Karen has developed this webinar which answers many of the questions we all have as we age: What are my care options and what do they cost? What are my risks for needing care? How can I stay safely in my own home? What does the government subsidize/not subsidize? What if I live alone? What is the difference between a retirement home and a long term care home? How do I cope with forgetfulness? How can I create a long term care plan? These are only a few of the questions answered in this session.

Karen’s father died of the flu 20 years ago in a long term care home. As the result of this life changing dementia care experience, Karen founded the Long Term Care Planning Network, Canada’s leading resource centre for ageing and long term care planning and education. Her seminar series, web site and print tools are recognized as key long term care educational resources for Canadians, their families and their professional advisors.

For over 25 years Karen has been a well-known speaker, educator, publisher and consultant in the field of long term care. Over the years she has sat on many not-for-profit/government committees concerned with ageing, Alzheimer’s disease, and elder abuse. She has created courses on ageing/long term care planning for major financial services organizations and contributed chapters to other professional courses on all aspects of caregiving and long term care.

Since the inception of COVID-19 Karen has been listening to Canadians’ worries about their long term health care system and is now spending more time advocating for seniors and educating both Canadians and their advisors about the uncertain care options in an ever changing world.
