Bridgit Care set to launch in Canada, empowering family caregivers and supporting Ontario Health Initiatives

Toronto, Canada, 04/07/2023

Bridgit Care, a leading UK-based Social Enterprise focused on empowering family caregivers, is excited to announce its upcoming launch in Canada. 

With a mission to support caregivers in their role and personal lives, Bridgit Care offers an AI-powered caregiver support platform that identifies and assists carers in need, provides a central support platform, and collaborates with local place-based teams to prioritize additional support. By addressing caregiver burnout and reducing system demands, Bridgit Care aims to make a significant impact on the healthcare sector.

Last week, Bridgit Care was invited by Agewell as part of a UK/Canada government trade mission to visit Toronto, laying the groundwork for their Canadian launch. 

The challenges faced by caregivers in Canada closely mirror those in the UK, with approximately 1 in 4 working people serving as family caregivers. Alarmingly, there are roughly 80 caregivers for every physician. 

Bridgit Care recognizes that supporting this community represents a tremendous opportunity to alleviate the strain on our healthcare system as the population ages.

Bridgit Care is thrilled to announce that it will be launching its services across the Toronto region by the end of July. 

The company is eager to connect with representatives from Ontario Health and each of Ontario’s 14 Home and Community Care Support Services organizations to showcase their innovative platform and explore potential partnerships. 

Bridgit Care believes that their service aligns seamlessly with the new Ontario Health initiative, “Your Health: A Plan for Connected and Convenient Care,” as it effectively identifies and empowers family caregivers.

“Our Canadian launch marks an important milestone for Bridgit Care as we expand our reach and support caregivers on an international scale,” said Darren, Founder at Bridgit Care. “We are confident that our AI-powered caregiver support platform will have a profound impact on the well-being of caregivers and the overall healthcare system in Ontario. We look forward to collaborating with Ontario Health and other key stakeholders to make a positive difference in the lives of family caregivers.”

Bridgit Care is committed to improving the lives of family caregivers, enabling them to continue their invaluable support while also caring for their own well-being. With its imminent launch in Canada, the company is poised to revolutionize caregiver support and play an instrumental role in building a more resilient healthcare system.
