October 2024 – Eldercare has launched the Can You Imagine campaign to bring innovative solutions, like interactive murals and wearable technology, to seniors with dementia and vision loss, ensuring they navigate long-term care with dignity.
“In long-term care, seniors are out-of-sight and, for many, out-of-mind,” says Tom Arnold, executive director at Eldercare Foundation. “Our work is to shine a spotlight on this problem, and to raise money for the care and support they need.
