Safety Strategies for Seniors

Caregiving Matters Project Safety Strategies for Seniors

As a senior, how safe are you these days? Do you think about ways to improve your safety? Being mindful of how safely you live has direct impacts on your health, happiness, independence and your dignity.

We are honoured and excited to partner with Hydro One to present a series of digital events dedicated to a variety of ways to improve your safety. On the 3rd Monday of every month from June through November, we will bring you safety strategies for you to learn and act upon. Our events will be fun, engaging and a great way to connect with others, all by using the Internet from home to join our program. Here is the list of safety topics and dates.

Each of the sessions will be taped and stored on our site for you to share with family and friends. Join us to learn how to make your world safer and more enjoyable.

We are grateful for the support of
