No future in
for-profit
There are three types of LTRC: public, privately funded, and private. The Health Insurance plan that we benefit from setting a monthly price of 2019.30$ for an individual room, which includes the medical care, in public long-term care when it costs 10 242.00$ to the state (Girard, 2020). Privately funded and private LTRCs can set their own rules regarding housing prices which vary from 5 000$ and 8 000$ per month. Regrettably, for-profit homes proved to be the least resilient during the pandemic: higher mortality rates, scandals, low staffing, and low wages (Armstrong & al., 2020). We have the chance of having a public system, which has flaws but still contributes to 76% of all the places in Quebec (CSBE, 2021).
