Even 4 Hours a Day Won’t Cut It — Why Transforming Long-Term Care Needs to Start with Empathy
Join us for the first webinar in the NIA’s new series — Spotlight on Healthy Ageing — with NIA Director of Health Policy Research Dr. Samir Sinha and Toronto Star Investigative Reporter Moira Welsh, in conversation about long-term care.
The discussion will explore important themes in Welsh’s book, Happily Ever Older, including international examples of excellence in long-term care, models that have yielded positive results, strategies for addressing loneliness, the importance of inclusion and the concept of ‘potential’—the idea that we can constantly thrive and improve no matter what our age or ability, and the right environment can help us to do so.
