Canada’s aging population is growing
rapidly. Out of a total Canadian population of 33.5 million, nearly 5 million
are seniors.
Canada is currently experiencing the highest growth rate for
this age group since the late 1950s and early 1960s. The children of this
generation, dubbed “The sandwich generation,” are increasingly anxious about how
to simultaneously care for their children while caring for their aging parents –
many of whom want to age at home for as long as possible.
Mavencare, a new home care service for seniors, helps alleviate
some of this anxiety by providing quality home care at a competitive rate that
allows for higher salaries for PSWs. “We want to provide the best care
possible. To do this, we offer higher salaries to deserving health care workers
and are able to retain the best of the best,” says James Cohen, Co-Founder of
Mavencare. “We recognize that PSWs are undervalued and underpaid. It is our
belief that by combining technology with adequate salaries, we can modernize the
home care service industry.”
Created by a team of
elder care and technology experts, Mavencare
provides technological
monitoring services throughout the home care appointment. Through the Mavencare
app, selected family members receive regular updates,
directly to their mobile phone. These activity updates confirm that key tasks such as medication
reminders and personal care services are completed.
Available now in the
Greater Toronto Area (GTA) and Calgary, Mavencare plans to expand service across
North America this year. https://mavencare.com/
