PURPOSE

The Resident Council strives to improve the quality of life of long term care residents by providing them with a platform to share their thoughts, concerns, and opinions regarding the day-to-day occurrences in the Home. This platform supports the facilitation of participation in inter-home activities, encourages an exchange of ideas, suggestions, and concerns, and improves communication between residents and CAMA staff.
