Coming of Age: Meeting the needs of our aging population

Leading in a time of great change


Listen Later

How do we build a better future for seniors? Elderly populations around the world are growing. And in regions like Ontario, Canada, one in five seniors over the age of 80 have complex care needs that currently can only be safely met in long-term care. Yet Ontario has more than 40,000 people waiting for long-term care and the list is growing.


In this episode, Donna Duncan is joined by three Ontario health system leaders from hospital, long-term care and community care:

  • Karli Farrow, President and CEO, Trillium Health Partners
  • Nitin Jain, President and CEO, Sienna Senior Living
  • Tess Romain, President, Partners Community Health


Listen as they discuss the challenges facing leaders today and what opportunities they see for the future.
