New process released Friday is asking for input on developing new standards for long-term care in every province and territory
Health Canada has launched a new consultation tool asking Canadians to support the development of new standards for long-term care in Canada.
Health Canada said these opinions can be gathered through an online survey or they can be gathered by email to [email protected] or by sending a letter through Canada Post as the following address:200 Eglantine Driveway, Tunney's Pasture,The consultation period will be for sixty days, beginning from July 21 and running through to September 21, said the news release.
Health Canada said creating a new law falls in line with the creation of improved standards for long-term care. It was during the COVID-19 pandemic that Canadians in every province witnessed the failure of long-term care homes to provide safe and adequate care for thousands of senior citizens. The plan also said a majority of Canadians, as they grow older, want to be closer to home and family and they expect and deserve long-term care they need to be high quality and safe.
