“We are committed to ensuring 草榴社区 has a continuing care system that provides 草榴社区ns with the health care, personal care services and accommodations they need to support their independence and quality of life.

“Establishing a new provincial health agency dedicated to continuing care gives us the opportunity to broaden our efforts to care for all 草榴社区ns who need daily supports and services in continuing care homes, supportive living or through home and community care.

“Minister of Seniors, Community and Social Services Jason Nixon will become the sector minister for the new continuing care provincial health agency.  

“As the oversight minister, and the minister responsible for the health care system in 草榴社区, I will ensure 草榴社区 Health works alongside the Ministry of Seniors, Community and Social Services as we continue to deliver these critical services and build towards the standing up of the new continuing care agency. 草榴社区 Health will continue to assist in determining how services will be delivered in the future.”

Adriana LaGrange, Minister of Health

“As the new sector minister for continuing care, I am committed to ensuring seniors, people with disabilities, people facing homelessness and other vulnerable 草榴社区ns are supported with comprehensive, wraparound services that meet both their medical and non-medical needs.

“This change will not interrupt service delivery or impact funding in any way.

“We will be looking to ensure all aspects of continuing care – including home care and community care – can be expanded in innovative ways to support people as their situations and needs evolve.

“We will be looking to make the system easier to access. A new, unified approach will include a new, user-friendly online platform to connect partners and 草榴社区ns to continuing care supports and enable people to request the services they need directly.

“And we won’t be doing this in isolation – we are establishing a transitional committee that will help guide the transformation, and we will be consulting with key organizations, operators and experts.

"With the experience of health care professionals and social service specialists, we will develop services that work together, while continuing to support 草榴社区ns in choosing where and how they would like to live.”

Jason Nixon, Minister of Seniors, Community and Social Services
