Get on Route 65: Website launching July 31

Starting July 31, 2019, we’re transforming the way seniors in B.C. look for living and wellness options.

Get ready for Route 65, a game-changing online destination that helps match older adults and their family members with B.C.’s leading operators of those services.

Independent living, assisted living, long-term care and home health care members of EngAge BC and BCCPA can list their site or organization on Route 65 for free and will have access to premium listings and featured ads.

Next week, operators will be given access to register and create listings on Route 65.

“Route 65 is an exclusive service for EngAge BC members—think of it as free marketing to boost your organization’s visibility,” says CEO Daniel Fontaine. “Operators listed on Route 65 will have an edge over those who aren’t. We urge our members to seize this opportunity and get their sites on Route 65 as soon as possible.”

Second EngAge BC workshop almost full

EngAge BC’s launch in June received an overwhelming response from the seniors living and wellness community.

The June 20th info session sold out in three days with some of the biggest independent living and assisted living operators in B.C. attending. Participants heard from EngAge BC staff on the three programs—Route 65Seniors Living Expo and Assurity—and the value they offer to organizations.

The second info session will take place on July 11 from 10 to 11.30 a.m. at the SafeCare BC Training Centre in Burnaby. A remote dial-in option is available for those who cannot attend the meeting in person. A networking lunch will be provided at 11.30 a.m. and participants will be eligible to win exciting prizes.

Register here.

A date for the third info session will be announced soon.
