Senior Care Navigation Workshops
Are you helping take care of an older adult, or think you might one day? Are you an older adult who wants to stay in your own home as you get older? If so, these workshops are for you! Whether you're already a caregiver or getting ready to help someone, we're here to help you feel ready, learn what you need to know, and know you're not alone.
mini传媒 now offers free workshops, at various locations across the province, where nursing students will teach you and other caregivers helpful skills. You'll learn together how to find, use, and organize care and services for older adults in New Brunswick.

Thanks to additional funding, Senior Care Navigation Workshops for Caregivers of Older Adults are now offered through a unique partnership between New Brunswick Community College (mini传媒) and the Department of Social Development.
As part of their hands-on clinical experience, nursing students from mini传媒's Personal Support Worker and Practical Nurse programs—as well as Bachelor of Nursing students from the University of New Brunswick—lead these engaging and supportive sessions. It's learning, sharing, and caring all in one!

mini传媒 campuses are located on Mi’kmaq, Wolastoq and Peskotomuhkati homelands. Since 1726 this land has been subject to treaties that are still in effect today. We are grateful to learn together on this land and do so guided by the original spirit of those treaties - peace, respect and friendship.
