Saving seniors from nursing home hell
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In the latest episode of Inside the Village, Frisco and Scott explore a unique idea that could help seniors across the country stay out of long-term care: a homecare company owned and operated by the very workers who provide the services. Here to talk about the compelling concept is Danielle Turpin, co-founder of Home Care Worker’s Co-operative Inc., and Dr. Simon Berge, director of the Research Centre on Co-operative Enterprises at the University of Winnipeg. Also on the show: How a North Bay brewery is helping fund Pride events—one can of lager at a time. Jason Maclennan of North Bay Pride fills our glass with all the details.
