What Are Wellness Care Packages?
Wellness Care Packages are planned services that enable individuals to increase and /or maintain their level of functioning in order to carry out their daily tasks. These services may include access to transportation, physiotherapy, occupational therapy, massage therapy, dental care, vision care, language interpretation/translation, activation, fitness exercises, daily living devices, spiritual care, dietary/meal vouchers, and counselling. These Wellness Care Packages will be geared to the special requirements of seniors.
Examples of Wellness Care Packages
2 Hours a Week of Physiotherapy for 3 Months
Dietician and/or a Hot Meal Once a Week for 6 Months
1 day a Week of Activation for 3 Months
Partial Payment of a Root Canal Dental Treatment
Why Are They Beneficial For Seniors?
Wellness Care Packages are necessary as seniors with declining capabilities and few financial resources are likely to postpone or refrain from initiating required wellness care programs due to cost and inability to access services. These two factors, cost of service and inability to access care, in addition to lack of knowledge of the availability of care are contributing factors to not using programs that may improve their quality of life.
Offering appropriate services may mitigate the effects of their condition and the potential for further decline.
