Title
Make the Case Report : Access to Senior Care in English in Quebec : A research analysis of English language rights in Quebec health care and access to the SAPA program for English-speaking seniors in Quebec
Abstract
This report discusses and details one of the AJEQ Project’s candidate issues of research: access to senior health care services in English in Quebec’s SAPA program (Soutien à l’autonomie des personnes âgées). The issue was selected on the basis of prior research conducted by the AJEQ Project, including a population survey of 1,601 English-speaking Quebecers conducted by Quorus Consulting Group in September 2021, which revealed that hospitals and CLSC care were among the most widely accessed provincial government services by English-speaking Quebecers, and that more than one in three English-speaking Quebecers who had accessed these services in the past two years found it difficult to do so in English. The issue of senior care was under close scrutiny at the time the issue was selected, in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic and the subsequent coroner’s inquiry into pandemic-related deaths at seniors’ residences across Quebec.
