Laura Tamblyn Watts believes that the future of seniors’ care is about taking a care-at-home approach, and reserving 24/7 long-term care for those who need it most. As CEO of CanAge, Laura works with long-term care operators, families, and caregivers to educate, inform, and advocate. Again this year, HIROC and AdvantAge Ontario have come together to produce the Inspiring Impact podcast mini-series. This four-part series highlights several amazing presenters at the 2022 AdvantAge Ontario convention, and explores the innovation and passion at play in the long-term care sector.   Today HIROC’s Michelle Holden and Philip De Souza sit down with Laura to chat about her presentation at the AdvantAge Ontario convention. Laura’s session delves into the two national standards drafts on long-term care, highlighting what operators, families and caregivers need to know.  Quotables: “Our organization, CanAge, represents seniors and really all Canadians as we age.” “In a perfect world our seniors’ care would be informed by overcoming ageism.” “The good news is this, we know the recipe for improved seniors’ care. We know we need to move to a care-at-home approach.” “Those walls of long-term care should be walls of safety and inclusion in community…” “I think as we are more multicultural and more diverse, we also need to understand that people don’t just become heterogenous white men magically when they come into long-term care. And so a greater understanding of diversity and inclusion around gender, sexual orientation, sexual expression…” “The good news is it’s not that hard, a human-based approach just means that we need to come together as diverse communities and support the planning of the physical space, the operations, and the programming. It allows us to be better.” “You don’t want to miss the AdvantAge Ontario conference.” Mentioned in this Episode:   AdvantAge Ontario   CanAge     Access More Interviews with Healthcare Leaders at HIROC.com/podcast  Follow us on Twitter, and listen on iTunes.
