At the Registered Nurses Foundation of British Columbia (RNFBC), we are committed to supporting the next generation of nurses specializing in the care of seniors, who support areas like dementia and Alzheimer’s care. Through the Carol Acton Bursary, RNFBC provides financial assistance to nurses pursuing a career in Senior Complex Care, helping them further their education and equip themselves with the skills necessary to support patients with Alzheimer’s and other complex needs.
The Carol Acton Bursary: Investing in Senior Care Nursing
As the population ages and the number of people living with dementia increases, the need for specialized care grows. The Bursary was established to support nurses who are passionate about senior care, particularly those dedicated to working in complex care settings.
This bursary is more than just financial assistance—it’s an investment in the future of healthcare and the professionals who are committed to enhancing the lives of seniors. With this support, nurses can focus on developing the skills and knowledge necessary to address the unique challenges presented in senior care.
Supporting Nurses, Supporting Seniors
As we observe World Alzheimer’s Day, we encourage you to take time to learn more about dementia and recognize the dedication of nurses and healthcare workers. Their compassionate work often goes unnoticed, but their contributions make an incredible impact on the well-being of patients and families facing Alzheimer’s.
RNFBC is proud to stand behind nurses who are making a difference in the field of senior care. The Carol Acton Bursary is just one way we are contributing to this important cause, helping nurses pursue further education and ensuring that seniors receive the specialized care they deserve.
