Saskatchewan Solutions is a series of live virtual sessions featuring initiatives, tools and resources that focus on building healthy relationships and strong safe communities through violence prevention.
Join STOPS to Violence on Thursday, January 16 from 9:30 – 11:00am for our Saskatchewan Solutions session featuring Sask Senior Mechanism.
Rod McKendrick with Sask Senior Mechanism will speak to social prescribing as a way for physicians and health care workers and others front line supports to connect patients/clients to a range of nonclinical services in the community to help improve the health and well-being of individuals aged 55+. Social prescribing can help to address the underlying causes of a patient's/client's health and well-being issues, as opposed to simply treating the symptoms that arise from non-medical issues. It promotes integrated community-based support and care and helps to reduce some of the dependence on health service provisions. Social prescribing can be used to refer patients aged 55+ to a variety of activities and services within or near to the community in which a person resides.
