Enhancing the quality of life for seniors who live in long term care facilities can be a challenge. As physical and mental abilities decline, frequent falls can lead to lasting injury, pain problems often go undertreated, and depression ensues.
The QOL Team works to develop ways to slow down the mental and physical decline that comes with old age. The team focuses on improved nutrition, prevention of falls, exercise, improved pain assessment and management, and enhancements in person-centred care. The multidisciplinary team includes expertise from the University of Regina and University Saskatchewan, working in partnership with long-term care facilities that are affiliated with the Regina Qu'Appelle Health Region and the Saskatoon Health Region.
