Anyone looking after someone at
home is welcome to attend an
introductory session to find out
what "Caring With Confidence" is
all about.
Margaret DeBoer and her family
have cared for a loved one afflicted
with Alzheimer Disease for the last
nine years. "Mom has cared for
him with patience and courage, but
being a caregiver isn't easy. At
times it is frustrating, exhausting,
and isolating," commented Mrs.
DeBoer.
The planning committee of
Gloria Workman, from Wingham
& Area Senior's Day Centre. Jean
Young from Town & Country
Homemakers, Marlene Roberton,
Public Health Nurse, and Nancy
Walker, Huron County Home Care
have been arranging for the
caregivers to get together.
"Sharing concerns, fears and
practical tips with others who are
experiencing similar responsibil-
ities is helpful. I would encourage
caregivers to take advantage of the
opportunity to participate in caring
with confidence. This course will
provide information and the
opportunity to share. The
understanding and support of othets
can make life less stressful" said
Mrs. DeBoer.
"Caregiver support groups in
Goderich, Exeter and Clinton have
been in operation and have shown
themselves to be beneficial" says
Dr. Maarten Bokhout, Medical
Officer of Health for Huron
County. "I'm encouraged that the
program is starting in the Wingham
area and hope it will expand to the
rest of the county."
Marlene Roberton and Nancy
Walker will lead the group in the
"Caring with Confidence" program.
The group will meet Mondays
starting April 5, 1993 at the
Senior's Day Centre in Wingham.
The meeting time is 2:00 p.m.
For information about the
Caregiver Support group, please

Program at 357-2264.

Which One Had Six Owners?
You're faced with some very important questions when you buy a
used vehicle. How many owners were there? Are any loans still owing
against it?
In the past, getting the answers wasn't always easy. But now, to
assist people who are buying or selling a used vehicle, the Ontario
Government has introduced the Used Vehicle Information Package.
If you are a buyer, the Used Vehicle Information Package will tell
you important facts that will help you make a better informed
decision. The Used Vehicle Information Package will tell you
the names of the vehicle's previous registered owners. It will
also tell you if any outstanding loans or repair bills are
registered against it.
If you are a seller, just think what the Used Vehicle
Information Package can do for you. Presenting a buyer with all the
information right from the start will make the decision to buy your used
vehicle a lot easier to make. And the cost for this package is just $20.
The Used Vehicle Information Package can be ordered through
the Ministry of Consumer and Commercial Relations any time, day or
night, by phoning 1-800-267-8847 outside Toronto, or 325-8847 in
Toronto.Telephone Device for the Deaf 1-800-461-8866 or 326-8866
in Toronto. Credit cards accepted. Or after May 3rd, 1993, a package
can be picked up at any Driver and Vehicle Licence Issuing Office.
A brochure with tips on buying or selling a used vehicle can be
ordered through the above telephone numbers, and is available at any
Driver and Vehicle Licence Issuing Office.
