Ontario is moving forward with significant new funding to ensure seniors have better access to high-quality, professional care, whether they are living at home or in long-term care.
Premier Wynne spoke at the Together We Care convention in Etobicoke today, sharing with long-term care and retirement home professionals how the 2018 Budget makes the deliberate choice to invest in the care that seniors need right now, and will make a meaningful difference in the lives of seniors and their caregivers.
Ontario’s 2018 Budget makes more than $3.3 billion in additional investments to support seniors and caregivers over the next three years. For long-term care homes, this will mean $300 million over three years to increase care hours and support the hiring of more nurses and personal support workers.
