The Erie St Clair Local Health Integration Network wants to pay tribute to caregivers.

CEO Ralph Ganter says this is the 5th year for the Heroes in the Home program, which honours those who do a very thankless job.

“Caregiver support in the home is so critical. So much of the care is coming from spouses and family members. It’s thankless work that is done in-kind or because of the relationship with [the patient]”, says Ganter.

The deadline for submissions is October 20th. Details can be found on their website.
