After Caregiving

Macaulee Cassaday, a producer at The Best Part, a Toronto-based production company is currently producing the second season of our short doc series "After Caregiving." The series tells the stories of former unpaid caregivers and their experience after their caregiving duties end.

Series synopsis:
Whether it is due to recovery, transfer of care or death, at some point, caregiving comes to an end. "After Caregiving" explores the challenges that come with navigating this transition and aims to shine a light and provide guidance to others in similar situations.

Our Process:
Each episode will be guided by the stories shared by our former caregivers. We will shape each episode with them, ensuring their stories are portrayed with the utmost respect and accuracy. We want to capture the essence of their experiences while also finding common threads that can resonate universally with caregivers. Each storyteller will participate in a pre-interview with our director (Saffron Cassaday), in order to be given ample time to consider and shape the story they want to tell. Storytellers may choose to remain anonymous through this process.
