THE NAV-CARE PROGRAM IS IMPLEMENTED THROUGH COMMUNITY-BASED ORGANIZATIONS WITH TRAINED VOLUNTEERS.
Step 2
If Nav-CARE is a good fit, the organization then contacts the Nav-CARE team to discuss onboarding and sign a memorandum of agreement.
Step 3
The Nav-CARE team then provides the toolkit including:
Volunteer Coordinator Manual
Facilitators Guide
Learning Manual
Step 4
The organization recruits experienced volunteers and mentors volunteer navigation training. These specially-trained volunteers then work with one or two people with declining health. The volunteer’s goal is to provide long term navigation support and companionship.
Funding Opportunity
With a contribution from Health Canada, we are inviting hospice palliative care organizations to apply for 2-year funding to implement Nav-CARE in their site and to support implementation in additional hospice palliative care sites.
The 2022-23 funding cycle is now closed. The next funding cycle will be announced on October 1, 2022
“You know someone’s coming by, checking up on you, giving you a sense of community … it’s nice to know that there’s somebody there who can help you out when you need it.”
