An excellent analysis of the recent report of Ontario’s Long-term Care Covid-19 Commission. What it got right, and where it went wrong. ottawacitizen.com/opinion/braedl…

We need national standards in #LTC, not one off side deals! To start: Public funding for good working conditions as basic prerequisite to good quality care. Get going, and get this done. Many countries have gotten this right. Researchers with int’l expertise know this.

For @thelocalhealth, I wrote about Orchard Villa, one of the many long-term-care homes in Canada that, in 2020, became a place of mass death. This wasn't an unforeseeable tragedy. It was a problem we all helped create. @MeMiller777 @jim_struthers @VBoscart thelocal.to/a-long-term-tr…

Braedley: 'Time to care' about proper staffing in Ontario's nursing homes ottawacitizen.com/opinion/braedl…
“This is an undervalued part of the labor market...Some care workers are badly paid, badly trained and have really bad employment conditions. And they were supposed to stop a transmission that nobody knew anything about”. nytimes.com/2020/10/08/bus…
“The government should not be relying on family members and staff to catch safety issues at care homes” cbc.ca/news/canada/lo…
“It’s like we as a country just don’t care anymore about older people...We’ve written them off.” washingtonpost.com/health/2020/09…
“Kuhn and the Gray Panthers have been so forgotten that it’s almost difficult to recall a time when advocacy groups for older people pursued a broader vision of a just society.” nytimes.com/2020/09/08/opi…
“Some 70 percent of America’s long-term care facilities are run by for-profit companies, including private investment firms. Those companies have squeezed profits out of these facilities by forcing them to skimp on care.” nytimes.com/2020/09/05/opi…
“We know what goes into aged care but we can’t find out how its spent.” theguardian.com/australia-news…
“[W]e need to question the erroneous assumptions on which our current care provision is founded: that we can rely on informal and unpaid labour to look after society’s vulnerable members...” theguardian.com/commentisfree/…
“We learned that people from care homes believed it was not even worth calling an ambulance...They should have been the first ones to get in the pipeline. And instead they were just forgotten.” nytimes.com/2020/08/08/wor…
