Membership applications are rolling in and inquiries are mounting, following the launch of EngAge BC, a new operating arm of BC Care Providers Association.
EngAge BC, unveiled Monday, has a mandate to support the distinct needs of privately-owned independent living, assisted living, long-term and home health care operators. It is responsible for developing and operating a suite of unique programs and marketing initiatives that support member sites across the province.
The June 20th info session on EngAge BC’s programs—Route 65, Seniors Living Expo and Assurity—sold out in three days with some of the biggest independent living and assisted living providers in B.C signing up to attend. A second info session has been planned for July 11th.
“We’re excited but not surprised by the overwhelming response to EngAge BC’s launch,” says CEO Daniel Fontaine. “It speaks to the tremendous interest and growth in seniors living and wellness services in B.C.”
“We encourage you to learn more about EngAge BC’s programs and the incredible value they offer to your organization. If you don’t EngAge, you will miss out.”
The info session will take place on July 11th  from 10 to 11.30 a.m. at the SafeCare BC Training Centre in Burnaby. A remote dial-in option is available for those who cannot attend the meeting in person.
AÂ networking lunch will be provided at 11.30 a.m. and participants will be eligible to win exciting prizes.
