Assistance for Seniors
Alberta’s seniors have made so many contributions to our province. They deserve to feel respected and valued by their government.
Alberta Liberal Action Plan for Seniors
- Increase the number of dental procedures currently covered by the Dental Assistance for Seniors program.
- Inflation-proof the Alberta Seniors Benefit by indexing it to the Alberta Consumer Price Index.
- To help seniors keep their homes, establish a loan program for home repairs, with the loan to be repaid upon sale of the house.
- Establish an Independent Seniors’ Advocate.
- Give established seniors centres the funds to expand their services.
- Establish government-funded seniors centres to provide one-stop shopping for minor health needs, exercise programs, outreach to shut-ins, and other services.
