Overview
The COE for Health, NBANH, and Shannex are celebrating Long-Term Care Month across New Brunswick during February!!!

Intergenerational (IG) is defined as – Interactions where multiple generations of people come together. Participation in Intergenerational programs and opportunities will foster life skills, such as community engagement and civic duty, as well as workplace essential skills. The primary goal of intergenerational activities and opportunities is to expose students to the nursing home environment and to senior care; a field that has numerous career opportunities. Experiencing the nursing home environment and engaging with residents is an extremely valuable learning tool for youth and will help expose NB students to potential career paths in the province.
