The support of our community (individuals/schools/businesses/sponsors/groups) has made our Virtual Care program a success during Covid-19! We are excited to share that ALL 80 of our devices are being utilized by isolated community members and seniors facilities across NW Alberta, and our local Adult Day Program!
