Ontario’s current home care system is under-funded, disjointed and not working for the many older adults who rely on it the most. We have a solution. norcinnovationcentre.ca/wp-content/upl… #NORC #AgingInPlace #HomeCare #Ontario #PolicyInnovation
Ontario has 2,000 Naturally Occurring Retirement Communities (NORCs). A new report from UHN's @NORCCentre explores ways to modernize Ontario's home care delivery by streamlining services in NORCs to offer better and preventative care. 👇 thestar.com/news/canada/al…

📷Congratulations to Connections50 on their 'Power of Us Micro Grant'! Food always brings people together, but more than that, it means that older adults living alone will have the opportunity to connect with others in hopes of reducing loneliness! #NORC info.volunteertoronto.ca/PowerOfUsGrants
Our @UHN NORC Ambassadors make aging in place possible in their communities. We honour them and their contributions to health and well-being during #NationalVolunteerWeek 2024! #Aginginplace volunteers help identify and define what healthy aging looks like for #NORC residents!
More than a third of older Canadians report feeling lonely. WCH's Rachel Savage (@savagera) and @NORCCentre’s Jen Recknagel spoke about the loneliness epidemic & solutions on @CBCOntarioToday. Listen here ⬇️ loom.ly/44UlLWg
We're hiring! We're looking for NORC Community Connectors to support older adults living in naturally occurring retirement communities to develop community-led solutions that provide new options for aging in place with dignity and choice. jobs.smartrecruiters.com/UniversityHeal…
Living in a naturally occurring retirement community supported by a program like @NORCCentre means being a part of “a community where their voices and opinions matter,” says @jenrecknagel, director of innovation and design. thewalrus.ca/you-dont-have-…

“I saw too many seniors abandoned to understaffed hospitals, with nowhere else to go but government-run nursing homes, to believe that there couldn’t be a better way,” says @HowardBAbrams, director of @UHNOpenLab. thewalrus.ca/you-dont-have-…
UHN's @NORCCentre was featured in @thewalrus' ‘You Don’t Have to Move into a Nursing Home. There’s a Better Way.’ NORC resident Christina agrees and shares: "NORC is here for what we decide we want and need." Read more here 📷 thewalrus.ca/you-dont-have-… #NORCs #AgingInPlace
“NORC is here for what we decide we want and need.” Ever heard of a naturally occurring retirement community? The idea is to find aging people where they already are—and empower them to advocate for themselves. @UHN’s @NORCCentre is doing just that. thewalrus.ca/you-dont-have-…
On #InternationalWomensDay we recognize #WomensAgeLab @WCHospital who ensure that older women, who are often flying under the radar in the health system, are front and centre in health research and clinical care. As older adults age, especially women, we need to pay attention.
