The Impact of COVID-19 on Long Term Care Homes
  • This document illustrates how the COVID-19 pandemic has brought forth the major problems associated with long-term care facilities especially due to lack of PPE, understaffing, and poor care quality.
  • Since people living in long-term care homes make up a significant proportion of COVID-19 fatalities and the poor environment of these facilities, the federal government has taken action to give guidance and funding to improve the state of these facilities.
