Description des services:
|
The Enhancing Care for Ontario Care Partners helps care partners across Ontario manage the stress and complexities of caring for persons living with dementia. The program provides both in-person and virtual clinical services and groups from 15 community health partner sites in over 40 local communities.
The Reitman Centre for Alzheimer’s Support and Training at Mount Sinai Hospital is the provincial hub for the program. Care partners in Toronto can access the program at Mount Sinai through the Reitman Centre for Alzheimer’s Support and Training. Care partners outside the Toronto area can access clinical services and groups by using the referral information for their local area on https://carersontario.ca/
Being a caregiver of a family member with dementia is a challenging and emotionally demanding role.
To help address some of the challenges faced by care partners, two groups are offered:
1. CARERS – (Coaching, Advocacy, Respite, Education, Relationship, Simulation)
This is a skills-based group for care partners of a person living with dementia. Participants learn practical skills, problem-solving techniques, communication methods, and approaches to managing emotional stress which are tailored to the specific problems and needs of each care partner.
2. TEACH – (Training, Education and Assistance for Caregiving at Home)
TEACH is an interactive group for care partners of a person living with dementia. Care partners may discuss themes such as self-care and future planning while learning from each other.
