Next Avenue: Welcome to The Future of Elder Care - Special Report
Next Avenue has produced a special report presented by The John A. Hartford Foundation on "The Future of Elder Care."
The special report's introductory article says that nursing homes and other long-term care centers were wholly unprepared for what 2020 brought. "But anyone who is shocked by the volume of devastation happening in the facilities shouldn't be."
