Seniors today have more choice than ever before when considering what supports they need to help to manage issues related to deteriorating health. In-home caregiver arrangements, retirement homes with the ability to offer assisted care, and other long term care options can be confusing. For many seniors and their families, the existing network of community agencies and other publicly and privately funded resources represents a complicated system that is difficult to sort through and access.

Drawing on her extensive knowledge of and experience with community care in front line, senior management and public policy positions, Jayne-Ann Steele (BSW, MSW, RSW) helps clients determine their needs, learn about the services available, work through the options, and find the approach that is right for them. Jayne-Ann works independently for her clients and is not affiliated with any service provider organizations, giving her a unique ability to advocate effectively on behalf of her clients. This independence, along with her excellent working relationships with community partners makes her an invaluable resource. Jayne-Ann works with families who want to plan for the future and with those families who are in a crisis and need immediate support.
