CENTRE FOR EDUCATION
CAPACITY BUILDING TO
SUPPORT OLDER ADULTS' CARE
The Centre for Education is leveraging its expertise
and experience to offer educational services and
build capacity among healthcare organizations locally,
nationally, and internationally.
The new Baycrest-operated, Bangkok-based Aspen Tree
is changing the concept of older adult living in Thailand.
A pioneer facility in cognitive health and older adult
wellness, the unique healthy living community provides
lifetime care for older adults to age-in-place. The
facility features personalized and holistic aging-related
healthcare services and programs to support healthy
aging, brain health and wellness services, luxury spa
and fitness facilities, as well as immersive lifestyle and
learning opportunities. As global ambassadors for aging
and brain health, BARE leveraged educational modules
to conduct remote, virtual, and in-person, best-in-
practice training for the community's "Care Angels".
Building on the learning modules and programs
created for Baycrest's Virtual Behavioural Medicine,
the Possibilities by Baycrestâ„¢ Model, and The Aspen
Tree operated by Baycrest, the Centre for Education
has also supported the implementation of national
tele-education capacity building programs around older
adults' mental health – the Extension of Community
Health Outcomes (ECHO).
