Hi there
I love, love this site. I am from Canada and I was wondering if you have anything that pertains to our Country?

Thanks Deb

Hi Deb,

Thank you so much! Yes we have a category dedicated to Canada and many Canadian members.

Hi Deb
Where in Canada do you live? I am in Brisbane, Australia, but am Vancouver born with relatives living in Newfoundland. I was thinking of finding an overseas facility to exchange a monthly email - like a pen friend style - to be shared with our Residents. (Our facility is 58 Residents, low and high care and dementia.)
Maybe I would share the email at happy hour. I have Residents interested in Canada and who have travelled there. Any chance you might be interested? Or could forward my interest to someone else?

We could probably come with all kinds of ideas if you had the time/interest? I've already checked the site golden carers have given you for Canada and love it!
