With the recent coronavirus crisis, we are all experiencing fear, isolation and uncertainty. During this time, everyone’s safety and wellbeing is the highest priority; finding creative ways to stay connected with each other and support those in need is crucial .This is especially true for our seniors, many of whom are no longer able to attend their usual daily programs.
Olive Community Services is committed to ensuring participants remain safe, healthy, and engaged physically, mentally, and socially. Towards that end, Olive has launched an online version of the Live Learn Thrive, (LLT), program through Zoom video conferencing.
Voices for Eldercare Advocacy cohost Rubina Chaudhary, and one of the Olive’s original founders, looks at this as a a wonderful opportunity to enable seniors who haven’t been able to attend Olive’s physical programs, the opportunity to participate through the World Wide Web.
Olive program facilitators join us on the show to describe the program.
