Today is National Caregiver Day in Canada, a day to recognize the millions of people who show up every day for someone they love.
In Alberta, more than one million people provide 647 million hours of unpaid care each year. Across Canada, much of the care that happens at home is supported by family members, partners, and friends.
Many caregivers are also part of the healthcare workforce, supporting others through their work and then returning home to care for someone in their own life. For many, caregiving becomes part of everyday life.
To every caregiver in Alberta, paid and unpaid, supporting a parent, partner, child, or friend, you are not alone. Today, and every day, Assisted Living Alberta thanks you.
