Saving seniors from nursing home hell

from Closer Look Hosted by Danielle Turpin, Simon Berge, Michael Friscolanti, Scott Sexsmith

In the latest episode of Inside the Village, Frisco and Scott explore a unique idea that could help seniors across the country stay out of long-term care: a homecare company owned and operated by the very workers who provide the services. Here to talk about the compelling concept is Danielle Turpin, co-founder of Home Care Worker’s Co-operative Inc., and Dr. Simon Berge, director of the Research Centre on Co-operative Enterprises at the University of Winnipeg. Also on the show: How a North Bay brewery is helping fund Pride events—one can of lager at a time. Jason Maclennan of North Bay Pride fills our glass with all the details.
