The problem with profits: As Ontario’s long-term-care homes stagger under a COVID death toll of more than 3,000, some say it’s time to shut down for-profit homes for good
Dr. Nathan Stall, Associate Fellow at the NIA and Dr. Samir Sinha are featured in this Toronto Star feature article about Ontario's long term care homes.“There are some people who totally bristle and, I think it’s a fair perspective, at having for-profit interests in a sector that houses and cares for such vulnerable individuals. I think that’s a very fair perspective,” Stall said. “But I have always cautioned, and I’ve been lambasted for this, against oversimplifying the issue, in terms of (saying) all for-profit is bad.”
