Volunteers wanted for Canadian Homes for Aging in Place Survey on Environmental Well-Being?
It’s common knowledge that many Canadians want to stay in their own homes for as long as possible. Our research team combines the expertise of the National Research Council of Canada, the University of Toronto, and Carleton University to try to help make that possible. You can help!?
We seek Canadians from across the country to participate on our survey about homes, the conditions in homes, and the health and well-being of the people who live there. You are eligible if you are over 60 years of age, live primarily in Canada, and either live in your own home or moved into supportive housing within the past two years. The survey is available online, by telephone interview, or by mail. The online form will take about 50 minutes to complete. Your data will be kept confidential and used only for research purposes.?
For more information, or to complete the survey, visit our web site online here or telephone the NRC research team at: 1-800-672-7990 and press 6 during the message to request a paper copy or to complete the survey by telephone interview.?
