Nav-CARE is a volunteer-led navigation program supporting people with life-limiting illnesses who are living in the community.

With the support of Health Canada, a team of researchers at UBCO adapted the Nav-CARE program to support caregivers of people living with dementia. Over the past year, a pilot study was conducted to evaluate the feasibility and acceptability of the adapted program.

Insights from this pilot study will inform the implementation of the adapted Nav-CARE program at multiple Nav-CARE sites across Canada.

Presented by Madison Smith, PhD candidate from the School of Nursing, Faculty of Health and Social Development, University of British Columbia Okanagan
