In this thought-provoking episode of The HQ, we explore several different dimensions of aging and the innovations in seniors’ and long-term care and what it means to age well in Canada. For this conversation, we are joined by Zannat Reza, Director of the Future of Aging social impact team at SE Health, co-lead of the COURAGE: Action for Better Aging initiative, and host of SE Health's own podcast, The Future Age. Together, we discuss the pivotal role our healthcare leaders and organizations must play in fostering and facilitating new policies and a shift away from outdated models of care towards sustainable aging strategies, especially in light of our rapidly ageing population.
Join us as we learn from Zannat about the COURAGE: Action for Better Aging Initiative and the work being done to develop a better approach to aging and senior care across Canada. This is a fascinating conversation that is sure to get you talking as our society’s approach to aging is one that will impact us all, directly and/or through our families.
