Our Family Council is a supportive and dedicated form for families and friends of residents in long-term care.  We bring together families and facility staff to exchange timely and valuable information pertaining to the well-being of our loved ones.  We also provide support, education and a venue for discussing collective concerns.

Our Family Council which normally meets monthly is assisted by Advocates for Care Reform (ACR).  This provincial organization helps establish and support all Family Councils within British Columbia and is dedicated to improving the quality of care and the quality of life for all residents living in long-term care.

As President of BHV Family Council I invite you to email me with any questions, concerns and/or positive feedback you may have.  Your concerns will remain confidential unless otherwise advised.  I can be reached at
