Document Summary
Demographic tsunami popn bulge of baby boomers closing in on the senior years (toronto) Denmark is one of the best countries in the world to grow old. The older we get, the longer we want to live. First wave of baby boomers are turning 65 in 2011: they will live longer than their forebears. Le has doubled in past century in canada. In on hc consumes almost half its provincial budget but system is still overburdened with waitlists, busy ers w/ old people and bed blockers bc homecare is inadequate and nursing homes are full. Need to redirect $ and power from focusing on hospitals towards community and primary care, prevention and health promo. In on our hc system is being transformed and caring for ppl at home. Baby boomers don"t want to be shipped off to nursing homes. Many people go to nursing homes when they really don"t have to.
