! We are celebrating the incredible Health Care Aides who form the vital heartbeat of Alberta’s continuing care sector!

Being an HCA is a stable, rewarding career centered entirely on meaningful relationships—providing comfort, companionship, and person-centered care to seniors in our communities.

At the Christian Health Association of Alberta (CHAA), we are proud to have been creating and offering the Health Care Aide Apprenticeship Program. By combining paid work experience with education, we’re helping build sustainable pathways where learners can earn while they learn and grow in a supportive environment.

Join us in celebrating HCAs and the vital work they do every single day! 💙

"Grateful for the hands that heal and the hearts that care every single day."

This Thanksgiving, we reflect with immense gratitude on the compassionate care delivered daily through non-profit, faith-based health care across our province.

Today, on National Seniors Day, we celebrate and thank the older adults who shape, enrich, and care for our families and communities. Older Canadians share their time, knowledge, and experience to ground and inspire us every day — and it is a privilege to give back to those who have given so much.

"To care for those who once cared for us is one of the highest honors."

Take a moment today to reach out, say thank you, or share your appreciation for the seniors in your life!

We encourage our members, partners, and community to use today as a catalyst for ongoing education and concrete action.

Did you know? Small design choices make a world of difference in dementia care.

This , here are four ways we enrich the lives of our residents and protect their freedom of movement:
1️⃣ Camouflaged Exits: Beautiful wall murals blend exit doors into the environment, preventing confusion and reducing anxiety.
2️⃣ Perimeter Paths: Secure walking loops surrounding living areas allow to explore freely and safely.
3️⃣ Outdoor Courtyards: Safe access to sunshine, greenery, fresh air, and movement.
4️⃣ Animal Therapy: Bringing joy, connection, and emotional comfort through gentle pet visits.

Safety is woven into every single decision made within a continuing care home — from medication protocols and physical environments to the psychological and emotional well-being of the residents we serve.
Creating a safe space in someone’s home is a profound responsibility. True safety isn’t about restricting life; it’s about balancing security with standard of living — ensuring residents can still garden, enjoy favourite hobbies, participate in recreation, and live with joy, dignity, and autonomy.

Today, for , we recognize the incredible effort of care teams across Alberta who work tirelessly to keep our environments safe, enriching, and mentally rewarding. Thank you for making safety the silent foundation of compassionate care.

This week, CHAA held our 83rd Annual General Meeting. We welcomed Brian Pollard, CEO, Assisted Living Alberta, and Shaun Peddie, Assistant Deputy Minister, Assisted Living and Social Services, for an interactive session with CHAA’s board and membership, focused on the sector and the work ahead.

John Kopeck, outgoing CHAA Board Chair, led our Year in Review, reflecting on the work and progress of the past year. We then looked ahead to 2026-27 with Carla Beck, incoming CHAA Board Chair.

We were pleased to welcome three new member organizations to CHAA: Father Lacombe Care Society, Allen Gray Continuing Care Centre and Eventide Home. We’re excited to have them join our membership and bring their knowledge and experience to our community.

Thank you to everyone who attended, participated and continues to contribute to CHAA. We appreciate your ongoing support and commitment to our valuable work.

Happy Canada Day from CHAA!

Today, we celebrate the diversity, strength, and shared values that make Canada home.

On this day, we reflect on what it means to care for one another, to serve with purpose, and to ensure that all people — especially those who are aging, vulnerable, or in need — receive care close to home, with dignity and love.

Wishing everyone a safe, joyful, and meaningful Canada Day. 🍁
