Featuring expert speakers, a lived experience advocate, and physicians specializing in elderly care, this symposium will cover essential topics, including transitioning from hospital to long-term care (LTC), the roles of care managers and social workers, patient rights, advocacy, and the cost of care.

Attendees will also gain insights into the critical role of caregivers at home versus LTC, self-care strategies for caregivers, and end-of-life planning.
