Listen "Delphine Haslé | The Aging Crisis: Are We Ready for the Senior Care Shortage?"
Episode Synopsis
June is Seniors’ Month in Ontario—and yet, the challenges older adults face remain underfunded, understaffed, and under-discussed.In this urgent and eye-opening episode, I sit down with Delphine Haslé, Executive Director of The Perley Health Foundation, to unpack one of the biggest crises we’re not talking about enough: the growing breakdown of our long-term care system.As our aging population increases, the gap in care, staffing, infrastructure, and policy continues to widen — putting families, caregivers, and entire communities at risk. Delphine doesn’t just raise awareness. She raises the standard of what compassionate, forward-thinking leadership can look like in healthcare.We talk about:Why our current senior care model is failingThe unique needs of veterans, who make up 40% of Perley’s residentsWhat happens when placement options run outAnd the policy and funding changes we urgently need to avoid collapseAging is inevitable. But how we care for people as they age? That’s a choice. And right now, we need to choose better. Tune in and rethink what aging with dignity should really mean.Find out more about Delphine and The Perley Health Foundation here.
