The RQRA Podcasts with Katarina-Darkise Marcil: A family legacy… and above all, a calling!
« In the Media » Les Balados du RQRA
For several years, the Savoie Family has been an active member of the Regroupement québécois des résidences pour aînés (RQRA) to help improve Québec’s seniors’ quality of life. From the introduction of the provincial tax credit in 2000 to the present day, three Savoie generations have pursued the same commitment: to advocate for humane, accessible, and respectful living environments.
In the latest episode of the RQRA Podcast, our Vice President, Katarina-Darkise Marcil, shares our vision, her journey, and the sector‘s realities:
- The evolution of senior residences in Quebec
- The challenges of overregulation
- The importance of keeping people at the forefront
- The impact of words on how people see what we do
She also explains the realities and challenges faced by private seniors’ residences in Quebec. These issues are often overlooked, but they directly influence the daily lives of managers.
At Les Résidences Soleil, our Social Mission remains simple: to offer affordable housing to all seniors, in a safe, warm, and family-like environment where everyone feels at home.
