Description:
The first wave of the COVID-19 pandemic disproportionately affected people living in long-term care (LTC) settings, who accounted for 70% of the deaths attributed to the virus. This report’s objectives are 1) to review current knowledge on the challenges experienced by LTC settings and on the needs of the caregivers of LTC residents in a pandemic context, 2) to identify inspiring practices that can be implemented to address those challenges and needs, 3) to propose recommendations to managers of LTC settings and decision-makers in the Quebec health and social services network (RSSS).
