Helping Seniors in Halifax Regional Municipality
Every day, all across Canada, families are struggling to cope. Many are raising children, working demanding jobs and trying to care for a senior family member. These Canadians are often called the "Sandwich Generation", and they are growing in record numbers. That's because Canada is aging in record numbers.
By the year 2020, the number of seniors will equal the number of 20 to 35 year olds. Advances in medicine and healthier lifestyles will help seniors work longer and continue to lead more productive lives. But the numbers also tell another story. More and more children need to help care for their parents. These family caregivers eventually run out of hours in the day, the stress becomes too great and the balance is broken.
