A Remarkable Milestone for Family Councils in Long-Term Care Homes
Independent Long-Term Care Councils Association of BC (ILTCCABC) is a “Provincial Association of Family Councils” representing the important collective voice of residents, their families, and residents’ representatives.
Fraser Association of Family Councils (FAFC) is composed of a dedicated group of volunteers made up of representatives from independent Family Councils in long-term care homes throughout the Fraser Health Region along with advocates and family caregivers wishing to make a difference in the quality of life for long-term care residents.
