Long Term Care and COVID-19
- The aim of this report was to try and understand how to limit COVID-19's effect on the elderly population living in long-term care facilities and come up with long-term solutions that would strengthen the failed system of long-term care.
- It contains two parts: the first addresses how COVID-19 has disproportionately affected members living in long-term care home; and the second revealing how the COVID-19 pandemic has uncovered the systemic issues that persist within these facilities.
