Kenjgewin Teg now designated a Living Classroom delivery site

Kenjgewin Teg has announced its official designation as a Living Classroom delivery site through the Schlegel-UW Research Institute for Aging (RIA), as well as funding to expand the PSW program that it offers in partnership with Canadore College, Wikwemikong Nursing Home, and St Joseph’s Lodge. RIA Senior Director of Programs Alison Kernoghan explained that the flexible Living Classroom model ensures that students are trained in the unique spirit and cultural context of the community. Kenjgewin Teg President Dr Beverley Roy further noted that the model embeds learning in the local care environments, which in turn “supports workforce retention while ensuring residents receive care from within their own communities.”
