To transform nursing home care, it is crucial to address the factors that impact the quality of care provided to residents.
Supporting Nursing Home Staff
Nursing home staff play a critical role in the well-being of residents. However, they often face challenges such as low pay and lack of respect, which can affect the quality of care they provide.
Overhauling the Long-Term Care System
There is an urgent need to overhaul the long-term care system to ensure that residents receive compassionate and quality care.
Addressing the Disparities in Care
The quality of care in nursing homes can vary significantly between privately and corporately owned facilities. It is essential to address these disparities to improve overall care standards. By treating, supporting, and paying staff better, we can create a more compassionate and effective care environment for residents.
