According to the reports generated by the Government of Canada, seniors in Canada are a rapidly growing segment of the population and are living longer and healthier lives than previous generations.
The report also states that in 2014, over 6 million Canadians were aged 65 or older, representing 15.6 percent of Canada’s population. Interestingly, the data also indicates that by 2030—in less than two decades—seniors will number over 9.5 million and make up 23 percent of Canadians.
Additionally, by 2036, the average life expectancy at birth for women will rise to 86.2 years from the current 84.2 and to 82.9 years from the current 80 for men.
Also, recent reports generated by Statistics Canada, indicates that 22% of Canadians had at least one disability – this represents about 6.2 million people.
These data clearly represents the need for health care providers to support Canadians in at least one stage of their lives. The above-mentioned conditions and the past observations suggest that employment in the health care sector will continue to grow in the province.
We will therefore bridge the gap between the demand and supply by providing the healthcare set-up or clients with a suitable healthcare worker.
