The Ultimate Senior Living Guide

Rose Reisman is a renowned authority on healthy eating and living well in Canada. Rose joined Aspira once again for another webinar to focus on outdoor eating safety and the benefits of staying active during warm weather, with Andrew Craig - Aspira's National Director of Culinary and Hospitality - also present.

The topic of this month’s webinar was retirement planning, particularly the shift into retirement living and finance management. Most people ask the question "will I outlive my money?" as they get older so Aspira wants to help you find the answer while offering tips on how to avoid that scenario.

The host of this month’s webinar was Dr. Stacey Fritsch. She is a naturopathic doctor whose passion for science, health and the well-being of her fellow human beings is evident in both her clinical practice and daily life. After earning a degree in biomedical engineering and completing a four-year medical program at the Canadian College of Naturopathic Medicine, Dr. Fritsch uses an eclectic approach to help patients navigate their health. In this article, she will highlight the effectiveness of warm natural drinks and talk about their hidden benefits.

Aspira Riverbend Crossing Memory Care is a retirement home in Saskatchewan with a difference. Solely dedicated to those with Alzheimer’s, memory loss and other types of dementia, it offers superior supportive care in an environment that “meets people where they are at” says general manager Shelly Sundholm. It also allows residents to age in place, from palliative all the way to end of life which removes the need for back and forth trips to the hospital if a resident’s health deteriorates.
