Celebrating 11 Years Serving the Community
October 2024 was the 11th anniversary of the Delton Glebe Counselling Centre! The topic was:
“Changing the Narrative, Start a Conversation: Considerations for Silent Strokes and the Suicide Risk Assessment Inventory”
and our speaker was
Cheryl Vanderveen, A.R.C.T., B.S.W., M.S.W., RSW.
Cheryl has held various Social Work roles, predominantly with a focus on geriatrics. Her employment experience includes work in dementia support and education. She has also provided Psychotherapy in a health care setting for younger adults and adults over 65. Her qualitative research article, published in the Canadian Social Work Journal (2019), highlighted best practices for supporting the frail elderly in rural settings. The administration of Comprehensive Geriatric Assessments was explored.
Cheryl teaches part-time at King’s University College, London, on a contractual basis in the Social Work program. She is currently involved in research and analysis regarding stroke education and suicide prevention.
Thanks to everyone who attended on October 3rd! We hope to see you all again next year.
