Greetings from the Co-Chairs
On September 19 & 20, 2018, York Care Foundation & York Care Centre will host its 11th annual symposium, “The New I.C.E. Age: Innovation, Communication and Engagement”. With new shifts in thinking of what aging care might look like, this theme comes at a poignant time. Innovation is key as our aging care leaders look at novel approaches to care and capitalize on technology being more accessible and cost effective. Communication is pivotal within our communities, not only with our leaders and fellow staff, but also with the neighbourhoods we serve. Engagement is needed from all ages and stages; to have individuals come together and provide solutions to address our aging care challenges.
Each of these components will be focal points throughout the duration of the Symposium and promise to be thought-provoking and enlightening. The New I.C.E. Age is happening now. The dialogue surrounding the future of aging care is changing, making for exciting and revolutionary times. Join us this year and learn about how you can innovate, communicate and engage.
