Returning home : fostering a supportive and respectful environment in the long-term care setting.: H72-21/174-2000E-PDF
"Returning Home: Fostering a Supportive and Respectful Environment in the Long-Term Care Setting, and its companion monographs, When Home Is Not a Home: Abuse and Neglect in Long-Term Care — A Resident’s Perspective, and Stand by Me: Preventing Abuse and Neglect of Residents in Long-Term Care Settings are a synthesis of the findings of two national projects known as Abuse Prevention in Long-Term Care (APL). The purpose of these monographs is to focus on improving the life of older adults in long-term care (LTC) by approaching the issue of abuse and neglect from their perspective. The aim of the three-part series is to stimulate discussion and action through sharing the experiences of residents, staff, families, volunteers and advocates from across the country. Questions are raised about perceptions and accepted practices in LTC and people are encouraged to explore ways of fostering a caring environment for all who reside, work or visit LTC" - Introduction - p.7.
