Amy decided to become their advocate and to develop a personalized service where seniors and their families could engage one person. That is how Tea & Toast was born. The name has several meanings for the senior population. For one, many older folks who are no longer truly independent end up eating tea and toast instead of a well-rounded meal. A second and more heartening meaning is the special intimacy and comfort that go along with sharing a cup of tea with someone. Thirdly, there is the old adage My Cup of Tea, which relates to a perfectly fitting situation.
Since Amy has such strong knowledge of the options available in her native Canada, the majority of their work is centered in Ottawa and Ontario. However, the company works with clients all over the world, especially when it is a child or other family member making the decisions for the senior person. Providing virtual tours of possible Canadian locations is easily accomplished for those as far away as the UK or Australia. Virtual tours and Zoom meetings are also one of the ways Amy and her team save time for people whose time is surely crunched.
Amy recently published a few years back and just updated it. Breadcrumbs is a comprehensive guide than empowers readers to make informed decision and navigate the complex system of care. The book is filled with personal and professional insights that make it an essential resource for caregivers.
