Greater Victoria Caregiver Support Program – Family Caregivers of BC

The mission of Family Caregivers of BC is to improve the quality of life for family caregivers through support, information, and education. We provide leadership to strengthen the voice of family caregivers and the significance of their role. Our interest in this project is to involve family and friend caregivers in the design, development and refinement of ACP tools, resources and training so that people’s wishes for their care are known, and care reflects those wishes whenever possible. We also want to learn how to make the processes as comfortable and easy as possible, so that people will take action and follow through on the both the conversations and the actual plans on paper. Ultimately there will be no guessing as to what a person wants for care, because the person, their family caregivers and their health care providers all know. Learn more here.
