The for-profit nursing home industry’s crisis of care | The Social

[@salyol7]

Seniors still do not have enough great care it needs to improve NOW!Homeless seem to be taken care of way more better not ok.What happened in some facilities during covid to seniors was horrible , sickening and having no visitors was unacceptable.Never,ever should this happen again.Not all employees in these facilities are good ,loving workers believe me I know.I want to die in my home.

I’ve been a psw for 10 years now in community care. Before this I worked in group homes as a social service worker. There is a whole other world out there that many don’t know about. I’d LOVE to work with this woman and advise her of what goes on in community care.

As a nurse for 25 years I have been saying healthcare for profit is brutal!!! LTC, acute care, hospitals, all of these places. So much cover up in the US to protect their money, donations ect

Not all Revera retirement homes are bad. There’s so many of them. I worked for one in Medicine Hat, Alberta, and it was great. I would have lived there!

The owners live like kings on tax payers money. Their only concern is profits disgusting

[@baublesanddolls]

The workers hired to fill the rooms will lose their jobs if they’re not filled.

It's much deeper than that. The real problem is we don't have the workforce. Birth rate isn't high enough and people are living longer. And the workers don't work (and sit at their desks on phones).

I have witnessed many problems in the not for profit long term care homes as well.
