Susan Walsh says a new report provides a clear road map of the steps to be taken to ensure that recommendations outlined in the Newfoundland and Labrador Long Term Care and Personal Care Home Review, which was released February 5th, 2025, are implemented.
The Seniors’ Advocate for Newfoundland and Labrador has released a report titled From Review to Action: A Continuum of Care Approach. Susan Walsh says it provides a clear road map of the steps to be taken to ensure that recommendations outlined in the Newfoundland and Labrador Long Term Care and Personal Care Home Review, which was released February 5th, 2025, are implemented. She says the report recommendations focus on the structure necessary to ensure change and accountability. Walsh says there needs to be a long term care and personal care home branch in the Department of Seniors that is focused on monitoring, oversight, inspections, compliance, penalties and public reporting. She says “seniors are owed this diligence given they are paying for these services yet receiving little value in many cases.”
