SUMMARY:Northern Association of Family Councils (NAFC) Zoom Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Northern Association of Family Councils (NAFC)  \n\n\n\nSeptember 12\, 2024  \n\n\n\n7:00 pm – 8:00 pm via zoom \n\n\n\nNAFC is 1 of 5 independent regional associations of family councils which make up the Independent Long-Term Care Councils Association of BC (ILTCCABC)\, a provincial association of family councils. Through monthly ILTCCABC meetings\, our collective voice is elevated to the Ministry of Health to affect positive change to the long-term care system in BC. If you’re a member of a Family Council operating in a long-term care home in the Northern region of BC\, we would love to have your family council join NAFC.  \n\n\n\nFor more information about NAFC www.northernfamilycouncils.ca     \n\n\n\nContact Nola cell 250-667-5686 \n\n\n\nIndependent “Family Councils” and combined “Resident and Family Councils” operating in long-term care homes in the Northern region of BC\,  as well as individual volunteer community members (persons with lived experience in long-term care) are invited to meet and network via this regional forum. We share best practices (standards known to produce good outcomes if followed) and identify systemic issues (issues that are occurring in many long-term care homes in the northern region). We look to overcome barriers faced by our councils so they can operate more effectively. We offer educational components to help our members gain a better understanding of the BC long-term care system. We assist long-term care residents/ families and operators establish and maintain independent councils (self-led\, self-determining\, and democratic). We look for ways to improve quality of care and quality of life for residents living in long-term care.

SUMMARY:Goals of care conversations
DESCRIPTION:Goals of care conversations which are different from but connected to advance care planning. \n\n\n\nGoals of care conversations are discussions LTC Staff have with people living with a life-limiting illness about their goals\, values and beliefs so that LTC can align the care provided with what matters most to the person. These conversations support peoples’ understanding of their health now and what it will look like in the future. \n\n\n\nFamily Councils can best support the conversation by thinking ahead with our loved ones about what matters most.  We will touch upon Deciding on Goals of Care and Medical Orders for Scope of Treatment (MOST) Long Term Care. \n\n\n\nJoin Zoom Meetinghttps://us06web.zoom.us/j/88478351457?pwd=EkwouCGp2geJeba1gDj9qvYA9AjADL.1Meeting ID: 884 7835 1457Passcode: 340287 \n\n\n\nDial by your location• +1 778 907 2071 Canada• +1 780 666 0144 Canada• +1 204 272 7920 CanadaMeeting ID: 884 7835 1457Passcode: 340287Find your local number: https://us06web.zoom.us/u/kedK81FGEO

SUMMARY:Strengthening Long-Term Care From Within-Residents And Families Make A Difference With What They Have – Their Voices!
DESCRIPTION:When: January 10th\, 2024 Starting at 7pm PST\n\nWhere: Zoom link for January 10\, 2024 Webinar\n\nHost: Lisa Dawson\, Vice-President Independent Long-Term Care Councils Association of BC\n\nILTCCABC hopes this webinar will build on the awareness among the public about ongoing issues in long-term care homes that compromise quality of life for residents. Our hope is that our building awareness and offering up recommendations will result in change and improvement to resident and family experience. We also hope our results will inspire others to get involved and put pressure on politicians and the government to address these concerns by advocating for system reform.\n\nThe issue of resident experience\, quality of care and quality of life has never been so grave and exposed as something we can and ought to do something about. Let’s start with what we have and have control over…that is our voice.\n\nILTCCABC is doing what we can\, with what we have: OUR VOICE.\nOur regional associations of family councils are actively supporting the establishment of a family council in each long-term care home – one care home at a time!\nIn long-term care\, the voice of the resident and family by way of councils offers a structured\, self led\, democratic\, collective voice which engages with care home leadership at a level where decision making about the care that affects them\, includes them.\n\nOur advocacy requires a paradigm shift in the model of and delivery of care. Support at the highest level of decision making is required for long-term care change. Our Ministry of Health must be influenced and motivated by the articulation of our direct experiences\, concerns and recommendations for improvement.\n\nILTCCABC recognizes the complexity of Long-Term Care which requires a multi sector advisory group as proposed by ARRC.  The Advisory Forum would ensure that the perspectives of all stakeholders are represented in the plan for long-term care and be able to articulate the plan to their public.\n\nWe look forward to you joining us as we share what we are doing towards improving long-term care with what we have: our voice!
