New Respite Program in our Area

Thunder Bay based Wesway is expanding into the Kenora and Rainy River Districts.
The group has rolled out a Respite program that provides funding for caregivers who need a break from taking care of Seniors living at home.
Spokesperson Carol Neff says the program has been very successful in Thunder Bay for the past 3-years.
Neff says to be eligible for the funding, the Senior must have a chronic health condition and is dependent on at-home care from a family member.
