Hi all,

I was hoping to start a sticky thread for all of us CP members to try and discuss, coordinate and exchange ideas and information on seniors care.

Given the state of the seniors care facilities during Covid and the rapidly changing demographics with our parents and grandparents, I think it's reasonable for us all to try and do a little more. It was hard for me to hear the medical professionals in Canada in all the provinces continue reminding us again and again to do basic things like call and message our older loved ones. Things like this may come natural to a lot of us but for others, we may need to step it up.

Hopefully this thread can be a place where we can discuss everything from nutrition, helpful seniors exercises and stretches , mental health support and various conditions our elderly are suffering with. We can than discuss specialists, products, services and ideas on how best to support our loved ones during their senior years.

It's an issue that affects us all and I think it's a duty we should take upon ourselves to assist as much as possible and hopefully this thread can assist in some ways.
