The Nanaimo Lions Club has long been a valued community partner in supporting Nanaimo Lifeline.

Since 1998, the Nanaimo Lions Club has contributed more than $18,000 to the Silent Guardian Fund, helping ensure seniors and vulnerable community members have access to life-saving support when they need it most.

This long-standing partnership is a powerful example of how local organizations can make a meaningful difference in healthcare across Central Vancouver Island.

The work that our team does for our community is so impactful. Making sure our elderly and medically vulnerable neighbours are safe at home is a cause we all really believe in, and we honour that work by celebrating together at the holidays! We bowled til our hearts content at Sunset Lanes and had a wonderful meal prepared by Jenna's Kitchen. Thank you all so much for the work you do, and for coming out to the party!

Do you have an aging parent with mobility issues who is living on their own, or with their partner who is facing similar challenges? Do you find yourself often worrying about them falling down, or having a medical emergency, and you not there to help them? You're not alone. Many of our clients come to us after the unthinkable has already happened - they fell down and spent hours or sometimes days on the floor before they were discovered.

Nanaimo Lifeline can help prevent this from happening. Let us send one of our trusted volunteers to install Canada's #1 personal emergency response system in your parent's home. Let us keep your loved ones safe 24/7, and give yourself the gift of peace of mind this holiday season. Call 250-739-5770 or email lifeline.nanaimo@islandhealth.ca today.

Nanaimo Lifeline serves south Bowser to north Ladysmith since 1987. 100% profits donated to our owner/operator Nanaimo & District Hospital Foundation.

This is so important and so needed for our seniors. Please give today!

Every year, more than 23,000 seniors over 65 come through the doors of the NRGH Emergency Department. They are the patients who often spend the most time in the ER, and overcrowding can make their care experience even more challenging.

Creating BC’s first Senior Friendly Emergency Unit means providing seniors with a dedicated space that is quieter, safer, and equipped with the specialized supports they need. This renovation will also help reduce overall ER strain - a meaningful step forward for patients, families, and care teams.

Together, we can build an ER that truly meets the needs of our aging population.
