Caregiver’s Cafe: The January Blahs…Or is it Depression?
Jan 15 @ 10:00 AM

It’s normal to feel that after-holiday let down when all the festivities of the season end, the credit card bills roll in, and the coldest weather, snow, and ice make us housebound. The feelings of melancholy accompanying this period are commonly known as the January Blahs. When should we take notice that the January Blahs are more serious or have turned into depression? Depression is a mood disorder accompanied by feelings of sadness, anger, and loss that can affect a person’s every-day activities. Sadness doesn’t always mean depression. Join us for this timely videoconference with  presenter, Yvonne Clark, Clinical Social Worker and Grief Counselor, to learn more about the difference between feeling down or blue and full-blown depression.

We’re in the process of setting up a FREE  online session  with Camille Nadeau, a bilingual doula, to take place on April 8, 2020.

  • How to prepare for the ideal birth you had in mind given this new reality.

  1. Where are you giving birth?
  2. What is your due date?
  3. Is this your first birth?  If not, what are the ages of your other children?
  4. Are you planning to breastfeed?
  5. Are you planning on a natural birth, or are you open to analgesics or anaesthesia?
  6. Write down three words to describe your ideal birth.
  7. Tell us your biggest concern.
  8. Other questions? And remember, parents-to-be, there is no such thing as a silly question!

Giving birth in the midst of a pandemic is certainly not something any of us ever wished for!  It is, however, a current reality for many local English-speaking parents-to-be.  The Wellness Centre is here to support you in this highly unusual time.

Get ready for birth in these unusual times by taking part in a three-session virtual prenatal course guided by Doula, Camille Nadeau. Learn all about Camille in a recent article about her in the Quebec Chronicle-Telegraph newspaper.

The aim of these sessions is to give you tips for an active and calm childbirth, and help prepare you for the unexpected. We hope empower you on how to make an informed choice in terms of medical decisions and how to stay calm and resilient, no matter what.

  • Where: Online videoconference sessions. All you need is a cellphone, tablet or laptop with a camera and an internet connection.
  • When: Mondays, May 4, 11, & 18, 2020 at 7:00pm

Recognising and Protecting Yourself and Senior Loved Ones from Elder Abuse
May 21 @ 10:00 AM

Join us for an informative videoconference session dealing with the subject of  Elder Abuse.  Mistreatment is a single or repeated act, or lack of appropriate action, occurring within any relationship where there is an expectation of trust, which causes harm or distress to an older person. It can take many forms and be intentional or unintentional. Sometimes mistreatment  can be  hard

to recognize or assess. It’s important for us to become more aware and protect ourselves and others from elder abuse,  ageism and mistreatment. Learn more about this important subject with  François Desmeules, CIUSSSCN Social Worker and Facilitator with the It’s Not Right! outreach program.
