Helping Seniors Age Well In Place

Hear from Cameron, Georgette and Susan how Whole Way House supports them to combat isolation, access the resources they need, and be a helping hand when they have nowhere else to go.

We are proud to partner with the AIRP (Aging in the Right Place Study) as one of their recommended models to help support vulnerable seniors to age well in place, with the care and dignity they need and deserve.

Thank you to our partners at Simon Fraser University for collecting the data and research and sharing this video. To learn more about this study across 3 cities in Canada, visit https://www.sfu.ca/airp.html
