Webinar Description:
OCO is excited to welcome Baycrest and Dr. Adriana Shnall, Program Director of the Baycrest Koschitzky Centre for Innovations in Caregiving, to introduce the Canadian Caregiver Assist and Referral Tool (C-CART).
C-CART is a user-friendly online tool designed for family caregivers. It helps caregivers identify their needs and connects them to local resources, support, and services. By answering a few simple questions, caregivers receive personalized recommendations to assist them in managing their caregiving responsibilities and taking care of themselves.
Join us to learn about:
• The background and development of the C-CART tool
• How to use the new tool
• How to access resources and information
• Future considerations
