In 2020, I find it appalling that our elderly population who are unable to stay in their own homes in their last years of life are being forced to share a room with 3 other people. A curtain being used for privacy is unacceptable. Sharing a bathroom
Will it take this pandemic to open eyes to these abhorrent housing practices of our most beloved aged population? They deserve dignity as they leave this earth. It is a position that we all may have to face as we age.
Please let your government officials know this is not something we are going to allow in the future. We now know the essential service provided by our healthcare workers is so needed and they need to be paid accordingly . We are living longer so let us live with grace and peace. Both federal and provincial governments will have to work together to get it done.
