"The greatest untapped resource in Canada, if not the world, is the collective wisdom of our elders." -Ron Schlegel
The green bench is a symbol of the untapped wisdom in our communities. We should all stop to listen, learn, and share #ElderWisdom with older adults around us.
This podcast is brought to you by Schlegel Villages, retirement and long-term care homes in Ontario, Canada.
