The Wellesley Institute is looking for participants to join our focus groups to help us understand the experiences of family caregivers who are looking after older immigrants from China/Hong Kong, Italy, India, Jamaica, and UK waiting for long-term care placement in the GTA. Each family caregiver will receive $40 honorarium for her/his participation in a 90-minute focus group discussion (in Cantonese, Italian, Punjabi, or English). Travel and caregiver expenses will be reimbursed. Our project collaborators include Ontario Caregiver Coalition, Yee Hong Centre for Geriatric Care, and Punjabi Community Health Services. For more information, please see the attached flyer or contact Thrmiga Sathiyamoorthy at thrmiga@wellesleyinstitute.com or 416-972-1010 ext.239.
