Description

Having spent the past week moving my home and business, I’ve finally had an opportunity to sit down and watch the PBS documentary entitled “Life & Death in Assisted Living.” The stories are horrifying and heartbreaking to hear, but unfortunately, not at all surprising to me. The corporation being investigated could have been just about any one of the larger assisted living corporations in the U.S. today because the problems of understaffing and lack of training in dementia care is ubiquitous. These large corporations are always more concerned about the bottom line than they are about the residents and the caregivers who work for them. Executives have layer upon layer of administration to cushion and shield them from the realities of what is really going on in their company. It will always take something tragic (for families and residents) and expensive (to the company) to bring about a positive change in the corporation.
