Long-Term Client / Activity Worker Program
The Long-Term Client / Activity Worker (LTC/A) works with clients identifying individual client needs and creating care plans to meet those needs within a timely manner. This includes arranging translation services, transportation to medical appointments, assisting clients with acquiring ID’s and documentation needed for housing applications for those who must relocate to Thunder Bay for medical needs.
The LTC/A worker also works closely with the Thunder Bay Regional Health Sciences Centre social workers and assists in arranging for home care nursing as well as assessments for assistive devices as needed.
Social activities are arranged to alleviate loneliness and social isolation that may be experienced by the long-term clients.
