In the final episode in our series about the COVID-19 pandemic and the crisis in long-term care, we’re going to tell you a different kind of story. A story of hope. About how the people we treat as disposable, can have lives of joy and dignity. And about one place where they were given exactly that.

 

COMMONS: Pandemic is currently focusing on how COVID-19 is affecting long-term care in Canada.
