From Learning Again in Almonte

Navigating our healthcare system can feel overwhelming. Questions like “How do I find the right doctor?” “Should I go to the ER or wait for an appointment?” and “What does privatization mean for my care?” are more common than ever.

With so many layers, shifting policies and new technologies, it’s easy to feel lost and to wonder, “Who’s really in charge of my health?” 

Learning Again in Almonte, in collaboration with Bridging Generations, is presenting a 5-week course, Taking Charge of Your Health Care, designed to help you understand the Ontario health system and your place within it. Facilitated by a variety of health professionals and coordinated by Sherryl Smith, this course will unravel the complexities of our healthcare landscape and equip you with the tools to advocate for your own well-being. Take the first step toward confident, informed healthcare decisions!
