Good to see more funding for one of the Champlain Region LTC homes. Non-profits have to work very hard to raise funds for expansion. https://t.co/2fDxCUhxfq via @SeawayNews

Wouldn't it be great if @ONgov started to look at alternatives to large LTC institutions. @NatKusendova @fordnation The Time for Small Care Homes Is Now

Families also want to see staffing issues resolved - residents suffer. Wage parity will reduce attrition. @NatKusendova @fordnation @sylviajones

We are proud to have collaborated with @ForgetForMoment to bring beautiful planter boxes to local #LTC homes. https://t.co/fbzJKQJ67p via @ottawacitizen

Planter boxes generously donated by the Forget For a Moment Foundation will bring smiles to the faces of residents, staff and caregivers in 21 #LTC homes in our region.

We need urgent action. Health care funding should be on addressing recruitment and retention issues and ensuring the best possible health outcomes for patients and LTC residents. https://t.co/ByWqTlyhAv Where is the plan? @SylviaJonesMPP

It's important that we hear about these culture change initiatives that have such a positive impact on residents' quality of life. https://t.co/BDHz7FJno3

Glad to see this investment in Ottawa #LTC homes. @NatKusendova Ontario Expanding Diagnostic Services in Ottawa Long-Term Care Homes

Congrats to the City of Ottawa for expanding person-centred care in their municipal homes.

Fingers crossed that the advocacy groups will be successful in their challenge. Bill 7 is cruel and takes away the rights of frail seniors and their families waiting for LTC in hospital.

Always so impressed with the work of the Ontario Association of Residents Councils. They just released their annual report:

Earlier this year a piece of land in Ottawa set aside for non-profit health care was dealt to a for-profit, long-term care provider by the @fordnation government. With the Ford government, private profits always trump the public good. #onpoli #onhealth https://t.co/oK92JJVliz

This is a win/win for family members and staff. Wouldn't it be great to see this in all #LTC homes in Ontario.

Do you know someone who excels in using respectful and empathetic language in #LongTermCare? Nominate them for the person-centred language Award! This is your chance to recognize someone who makes a positive impact through their inclusive communication! https://t.co/MHfEEyWKl3

Another study recommends caregiver needs be assessed by healthcare providers: A Cross-European Study of Informal Carers’ Needs in the Context of Caring for Older People, and their Experiences with Professionals Working in Integrated Care Settings https://t.co/JvqIGBjaEA

Good to see that there is a new standard addressing mental health. https://t.co/K5Kr2Jvnj0

Wouldn't it be wonderful to see something like this in Ontario! Public Dementia Village opens in Comox, B.C.
