Simply Compassion Advocacy Society was recently established as a non-profit organization to address issues facing seniors and people who have been diagnosed as palliative.
Through education, our mission is to share our expertise and to provide trained volunteer advocates and companions to seniors and our palliative community, at no cost to our clients.
Simply Compassion Advocacy Society (SCAS) believes we are in a crisis with senior care and recognizes there are countless numbers of seniors who feel isolated, lonely and disenfranchised. These issues affect us as a community either directly or indirectly.
SCAS knows that many seniors would benefit from trained volunteers offering one on one companionship. We are confident this support will help many seniors feel valued and will ease their feelings of isolation and loneliness.
Often families are not sure what questions to ask when looking for a care home for their loved one. As well, once they have made the move to a care home, they may have concerns about the care, and not know how to address these concerns. SCAS offers resources and support to assist in these decisions.
Many seniors do not have family to advocate for them. SCAS would like to offer that support by providing resources and a trained advocate to listen to concerns and attend meetings with family and care home staff.

Vision: To provide support, education, resources, and advocacy for seniors while enhancing quality of life.
