Event: Working to Care? Eldercare workers in Vancouver: Issues and challenges

There is increasing need for workers in the eldercare sector – community health workers, home support workers, residential care aides, in-home caregivers, and nursing home attendants. Workers in these jobs provide vital care services to our aging population. Yet working conditions, job security, scheduling and other issues make it ‘hard work to care’. This workshop will provide a forum for workers and advocates to share experiences in the sector and discuss priorities for change.

Light refreshments will be provided, and travel costs for workers reimbursed. The event is free and open to all.
