Aging Well Takes a Community: From Policy to People

CHATS CEO Christina Bisanz welcomes an exceptional group of leaders to the podcast: Amy Coupal, CEO of the Ontario Caregiver Organization; Dr. Samir Sinha, a leading geriatrician at Sinai Health System and University Health Network, Professor of Medicine at the University of Toronto, Director of Health Policy Research at Toronto Metropolitan University’s National Institute on Ageing, and Fellow of the Canadian Academy of Health Sciences; and Laura Tamblyn Watts, CEO of CanAge and a nationally recognized advocate for seniors’ rights. Together, they explore a powerful and timely theme, “Aging Well Takes a Community: From Policy to People.” This wide-ranging and insightful conversation looks at what aging well truly means, the role of social prescribing, the impact of ageism, caregiver burnout, and the small, practical steps that can create meaningful change. Aging affects us all, and this episode highlights how strong systems, caring communities, and a willingness to listen can make a lasting difference. This is an informative and thought-provoking discussion you will not want to miss.
