Senior care

The Quebec Community Groups Network (QCGN) and Seniors Action Quebec invite you to our Lunch and Learn: Accessing Senior Care in Quebec on March 15 from noon to 1 p.m. The webinar will discuss the Access to Justice program and QCGN’s 2023 report titled Access to Senior Care in English in Quebec.

Ongoing health-care crises have disproportionately affected Official Language Minority Communities (OLMCs) due to their weaker access to necessary health services in the official language of their choice. This report highlights the unique challenges faced by English-speaking seniors in accessing essential health services, including basic doctors' appointments and long-term care. The report's findings will interest community members, researchers, and practitioners alike.

Speaker: Me Gerry Sklavounos, Jr., B.C.L., LL.B., QCGN Senior Advisor, Legal Affairs

This conference marks the beginning of the QCGN’s Access to Justice webinar series which will showcase various research reports.
