Ontario Long-Term Care

(1/2) May 5 is #RedDressDay, a national day to honour and remember Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women, Girls, and Two-Spirit People, and to acknowledge the ongoing crisis that continues to affect Indigenous communities.

It’s Mental Health Week. This year’s theme, “Come Together, Canada: Stronger Connections. Better mental health,” highlights the importance of connection to our overall well-being. Meaningful connections are at the heart of well-being in long-term care. Together, we can create a greater sense of belonging and strengthen mental health.

This month, we celebrate National Physiotherapy Month! We recognize the important role physiotherapists play in Ontario’s long-term care sector, supporting residents’ mobility, enhancing quality of life, and promoting recovery. Their expertise helps residents maintain independence and achieve better health outcomes. Join us this May in recognizing their dedication and impact. @SeniorsON @ONgov @AdvantAgeOnt @OLTCAnews

Today we celebrate World Health Day. This year, the World Health Organization unites people with the theme “Together for health. Stand with science.” Supporting science and collaboration in long-term care is key to improving care, protecting residents, and building healthier communities. Together, we turn evidence into action to protect people and our planet. #WorldHealthDay @SeniorsON @ONgov @AdvantAgeOnt @OLTCAnews

Today, on National Caregiver Day, we recognize the dedicated caregivers in long term care who provide compassionate, person centred support to residents every day. Whether supporting individuals through illness, aging, or disability, caregivers play a vital role. Their commitment helps ensure dignity, comfort, and quality of life for those who call long term care home. Thank you for the essential role you play in our communities. #NationalCaregiverDay @SeniorsON @ONgov @AdvantAgeOnt @OLTCAnews

Indigenous languages are carried in daily life — in family conversations, shared stories, and words that stay with us. As National Indigenous Languages Day approaches, we honour the words that connect us to identity, community, and place. #IndigenousLanguages
