Intergenerational Mediation

According to The Ontario Association of Family Mediation, Intergenerational Mediation is ”the mediation of any dispute or conflict involving older adults. Mediation is cooperative, private, informal, supportive, and non-confrontational, and lends itself well to resolution of disagreements with people of advanced age.”

The participation of those involved in the circle of care for the older adult, including family members, friends, doctors, nurses, and home care providers, is often integral to resolving the disagreements.

“… over the past several years I have had the opportunity to work closely with Ms. Young on … extremely complex cases … her ability to assess and manage conflict … is incisive, strategic and to the point …”
