Brome-Missisquoi Caregiver Support Group
During the 1990s, the CLSC La Pommeraie consulted the population of its territory. A need was clearly defined: the lack of support for caregivers in Brome-Missisquoi. In response to this request, the Brome-Missisquoi Caregiver Support Group (BMCSG) was officially created in 1996 with the goal of offering respite and support services.
BMCSG has an important role and that is to give caregivers a chance to rest, to express their needs and feelings, to be listened to with empathy and compassion, and to be given support and tools that will help them to better assist their loved ones. We help and encourage extraordinary people who deserve and are entitled to resources to improve their quality of life.
