Gatekeeper Information Session

Customized presentations are provided free of charge to businesses or service organizations in the Niagara Region wishing to support the Niagara Gatekeepers Program. Groups outside the Niagara Region can request an information session, however a nominal fee may be charged to cover travel and materials.

Presentations are generally 30-45 minutes in length and are an excellent opportunity for staff, volunteers and community groups to learn more about the program and have their individual questions answered. Sessions often include a short video and case scenarios and cover:

1. Your Role as a Gatekeeper
2. What to Look For – Signs of Risk
3. How and When to Make a Referral
4. What Happens After You Call
5. The Rights of Gatekeepers and Older Adults
6. Question & Answer Period

All participants receive information about the Gatekeeper Program and a wallet card for future reference. To arrange a presentation for your group phone 905-984-2621 or 1-877-212-3922.
