Trail Area Nav-CARE

Trail Area Nav-CARE is a service offered by Greater Trail Hospice Society and is partially funded by the Government of Canada's Age Well at Home Initiative.

Trained navigator volunteers are paired one-to-one with adults living with chronic illness, increased frailty or social isolation to support them with their social, emotional, and practical needs.

The focus of Nav-CARE is on improving the client’s quality of life in the ways that they determine are best. In some cases, this may mean supporting access to other community services, looking up information online for them, undergoing creative problem-solving, and filling in forms. In other cases, it may simply be to sit and visit, play cards, or look at photo albums together.
