Our latest study shows that BC seniors' access to home and community care continues to decline. Home and community care includes services like home nursing, residential care and home support that help keep seniors healthy and independent. Without these services, more seniors end up in hospital, taking up beds that could be used by others.

CCPA not only does first-rate research; it also connects with the real world by putting powerful information in the hands of advocacy groups and by presenting intelligent, progressive ideas in the media. It is a BC jewel and I urge everyone to support it.
