Many have jobs outside the home, or are also primary parents for young children.https://bit.ly/2MuQ8jI
“We don’t tend to think about long-term care until we need it,” Sanders said. “Long-term care has traditionally not gotten the ... recognition it deserves for its vital role in the health care system. I hope that as a result of the pandemic, that changes.”https://bit.ly/2MuQ8jI
Fucking how? my grandma had to stay in a nursing home for 2 months. The final bill was was more than I make in a year and half. I find it hard to believe these places could EVER be hurting for money.
They steal the wealth of the aged ! Horrible care as well.
These care facilities are not owned or operated by medical minds. They need to be regulated inspected and operated by the community for true investment. Many are our retired civil servants teachers and military personnel. The whole medical care system must be reimagined
Here’s a radical thought - maybe we should have government involvement like the VA and unlike the VA that suffers from lack of funding maybe we could do better with this. Nursing homes are expensive and have poor care.
We shouldn't have to think about affording longterm care; it should be built into the foundation of care available to citizens, paid for by taxes (as well as healthcare, education, etc. This should not be a concern, period. America is a failed country. Absolutely ludicrous.
They already put profits before patients.
Nursing homes have been horrible places to live for years. They charge outrageous prices & have no help or oversight. They take advantage of the huge demand for care for the elderly only to make a buck. They could care less about the residents. We need paid for home care.
