The Provincial election is being held on May 9th and the issue of seniors care will no doubt be top of mind for our political leaders. With a rapidly ageing population as the backdrop, the BCCPA is hosting a special Election 2017 Edition of our popular Care to Chat series. We’ve invite candidates from all the major political parties to discuss what they’ll do to support seniors if they are elected to government next spring. What innovations are they proposing or willing to support? Will they increase funding? Are they prepared to transfer resources from acute care to the community? Do they agree we are doing enough to deal with the issue of Dementia?

Judy Darcy, MLA for New Westminster and the NDP’s Health Critic, has confirmed her attendance. We have also extended an invitation to the BC Liberals and the BC Green Party and are awaiting confirmation as to who will be participating.

Join us for one of the first scheduled political debates of the campaign season! If you have an interest in seniors care, you won’t want to miss it. Register today as tickets will go fast!
