If COVID has taught us anything, it is to end our sole fixation on nursing homes.
It is still too soon to reflect on lessons from the trauma inflicted by a raging pandemic. The entire world remains on a steep learning curve and the end of that “learning” is nowhere in sight.
In fact, there may never be an end as we adapt to the reality of life with COVID-19. But there are a few things we do know for sure.
COVID has shone a spotlight on profound global inequalities. There are deep and growing disparities between vaccine have and have-not nations.COVID has been equally devastating when it comes to populations within countries. Here at home, older Canadians, racialized groups and marginalized workers have been disproportionately affected by the pandemic.
Right from the get-go, older Canadians were the most vulnerable and hardest hit. They remain on the front lines of this ongoing battle. Nursing homes, in particular, are the ground zero of this viral war.
The neglect of nursing homes was swiftly and correctly branded as our national shame. Multiple investigations and reports documented the shocking deficiencies and called for better infection control, tighter sanitation procedures and improved care.
Though clearly necessary, these reforms are not sufficient. The “what-to-do-about-seniors” discussion always reverts to a singular and narrow focus on better nursing homes. While there are many good homes in the country, this can’t be the only option.
When it comes to older Canadians, there are three missing parts to the post-COVID equation:
- First, the narrative has to change. Let’s stop saying “seniors.” Do we refer to children as “juniors?” We need to talk about older Canadians who now comprise, according to the most recent Census, the largest proportion of the Canadian population.
Older Canadians are typically lumped together in one group as though all are sick and frail. This characterization is incomplete — and incorrect. In fact, there are two main cohorts that have evolved: “younger” older Canadians and those over age 85. Their interests and support requirements are quite different.
- Second, we should shift the focus from needs to rights. All Canadians — including older individuals — have a right to live in good health and dignity. We should ask what this really means. For most, it does not involve institutional care.
A recent survey by the National Institute on Aging found that almost 100 per cent of Canadians aged 65 and older planned to live in their own home for as long as possible. Yet Canada spends 87 per cent of long-term care dollars on institutionalizing people in nursing homes rather than at-home assistance. Moreover, few options exist for older Canadians between the home alone and institutional care ends of the housing continuum.
There are many successful examples around the world of alternative living arrangements that combine affordability, safety and support. Co-housing, for example, enables small groups to live together in family-style homes where they share costs and care for each other.
Intergenerational housing matches older adults with students, who get free rent in exchange for free care. Dementia villages provide secure environments that allow residents to avoid institutions and move safely within the village.
These models have never been widely embraced in Canada. If anything, there are barriers to creating these alternatives. In some municipalities, for example, co-housing options have faced outdated prohibitions related to concerns about illegal boarding houses and nursing homes. In 2019, an Ontario MPP introduced the Golden Girls Act (now passed in law) to prevent municipalities from barring unrelated people from cohabiting.
- Third, affordable housing arrangements that enable support are important not just for older Canadians. Intergenerational housing options throughout the world have helped students complete their post-secondary education and young families struggling on their own to do it all — make ends meet, maintain relationships and take good care of their children.
Solutions for the future should include intergenerational arrangements. We need each other — emotionally, socially and financially — perhaps more than ever.
If COVID has taught us anything, it is to end our sole fixation on nursing homes. We should instead be nursing better ideas about how to create more caring, supportive and affordable living arrangements for all Canadians.

As I’m an international student and i presented ona a topic which was some but new for me which was elder care during pandemic. I am from india and there the scenario is totally different from canada , here we have proper nursing home and elder home cares which are not there in india. I learned new things while researching for my presentation and gathered lot of knowledge about home care system. As i am enrolled in social services worker courses i think this presentation will help me alot for my future practice and understanding the things because during the second semester of my study we have to placement we have to show our skills and also gain knowledge, this placement can be in any field like child care , elder care and many other but now i personally want to work in elder care home because i get to know from m topic that after the covid – 19 there is huge neglect in elder care either it can be because of lack of funding or weak policies of government. I really want to take care of those elders who really deserve it, and it is responsibility of every individual that they have to take care and respect their elders. If i get chance in future i will definitely raise voice and fight for the rights so they can get better facilities and care which they are need.
This article made me think a lot about elder care in Canada as an international student from India following social service work because before this, I was not totally aware by health management system of Canada and what action was taken placed here during covid-19. Eldercare is mostly run by long-term care facilities in Canada, but it is usually handled by families at home. Many problems in these institutions were revealed by the COVID-19 epidemic, including insufficient staffing, limited financing, and unfair treatment in for-profit care facilities. These problems injured a lot of elderly people and showed how vulnerable elders are in such systems This is important for my future as a social service worker. Among the most helpless groups that social service workers help are elderly persons. From this essay, I learned that besides helping people, I also must fight for policy reforms. For instance, fighting for better conditions and increased personnel in retirement homes would make a big difference. My cultural background also shows more clearly how important it is to respect the many needs of the elderly, especially immigrants, to whom it can give knowledge of their cultural background; this may make them more valued and appreciated because many among elderly people suffer from a lot of loneliness. This encourages me to try harder to ensure better eldercare. I would like to see every senior receiving the due dignity, respect, and care. This also teaches me how beneficial would-be addressing changes in system for our elder and help provide them good care and attention.
As I worked on this group, I learned more about the ignorance faced by older Canadians, especially during the COVID-19. I have always thought that taking care of older people is a family duty, especially as they get older, because I grew up in a society that taught us to respect and care for our elders. But after learning about what’s going on in Canada, I see that many older people are ignored, especially during the pandemic. They are put in nursing homes or community care facilities, where they might not be able to reach their families or the people who can help them. As someone who wants to become a Social Service Worker (SSW), this problem has made me think about how I can help older people in my job. One of the main things I want to do is make sure that older people don’t feel alone. A lot of older Canadians now live in care homes where their families can’t visit. This makes them feel lonely and neglected. I want to be a part of the change that helps older people keep their freedom and sense of dignity. One way I could do this is by promoting different types of care, like in-home support, community-based programs, or living arrangements with other generations.
I will also try to make more people aware of how important it is to respect and care for older people in my future work. People who think that older people is a burden. I want to fight for a system that helps older people do well, feel connected, and stay important parts of the community. In the end, this problem taught me that as a Social Service Worker, it’s not enough to just help older people,I also need to push for changes in the way we care for our elderly.
The covid 19 pandemic exposed serious issues with how modern society cares for its older people, particularly in retirement villages and nursing homes. these became hotspots of infections prompting the death of large numbers of elderly residents , and also of care workers . government policies , executed during the pandemic , prioritized these institutions often disregardful of the rights and preference of old people .many of them were separated from their families and communities exposing them to risk not just of the virus but also mental and emotional suffering .
It is also heavily influence in favor of institutional senior care with the little consideration of possibly more effective alternatives such as community based care ,home care and also multi generational housing .such options might enable older people to remain in vibrant , supportive communities .social work in the early stages of the pandemic was focused on maintaining institutional care rather than advocating for the needs and desires of elderly people . As I understand that the elderly people like to live with there loved ones but in some cases it will not affect or it will not works because of the situations. ageist policies and practices restricted their autonomy even further put out the effect on their health and wellbeing .alternative models can bring fresh ideas but they are very complicated , expensive and they can help only certain people moreover the current approaches have their own problems , like being outdated , unfair or not solving problem completely so we need solutions that are simple and fair whether its improving the current system
The issue we have chosen to talk about is what COVID-19 pandemic has taught us about caring for our elders. The emphasis and reliance of elderly care on nursing homes and retirement homes during pandemic and its impact on elderly population has been notably alarming, during the pandemic. Lots of elderly population and healthcare professionals were infected and lost their lives in nursing homes and elderly care facilities because the government was unable to manage such facilities in safer and proper way. The government policies that favored nursing facilities and care institutions completely disregarded the integrity and right of choices of elderly people during the pandemic as they were put in huge and separate group of same age, isolated from the rest of the community. It demoralized and made elderly people fall in pit of helpless situations where there were no options to chose from. They had to opt towards staying in nursing homes during pandemic, away from their families and community which made them isolated and vulnerable towards the pandemic as well as their mental and emotional health. It not only affected the elderly population, but also affected the families of elderly people, care givers, health professionals, racial minorities, low-income households and the communities as well.
Also, elderly care system’s funding is hugely disproportionated as it is largely invested towards institutionalization of care homes rather than investing on new and improved reforms like community-based care, home care options, community housing where people of all age groups can live as a community including elderly people as well. The system’s lack of appropriate funding, discrimination of elders and weak policies reflected during the crisis and outbreak of infection in nursing homes and care facilities. The early social work practice did not fully contribute towards advocating the elderly individual’s own right to choose but rather focused towards alleviation of care and support in nursing facilities and retirement homes. The earlier social work practices were limited by ageist practices and harsh policies that disregarded the elderly people’s need during the pandemic. The pandemic resulted in outrageous effect in health and stability of elderly people and care givers in nursing homes. This issue is relevant to social service work practices because as a social service workers we need to advocate towards bringing positive changes in the reforms and policies directed towards taking care of elders.
Social service workers should be free of ageist practices and help elderly individuals to have their right to choose and afford home and community-based care facilities. We should advocate for the financial support from the government towards establishing equitable and affordable home and community-based care facilities for all elderly individuals without systemic discrimination.

The issue we have chosen to talk about is what COVID-19 pandemic has taught us about caring for our elders. The emphasis and reliance of elderly care on nursing homes and retirement homes during pandemic and its impact on elderly population has been notably alarming, during the pandemic. Lots of elderly population and healthcare professionals were infected and lost their lives in nursing homes and elderly care facilities because the government was unable to manage such facilities in safer and proper way. The government policies that favored nursing facilities and care institutions completely disregarded the integrity and right of choices of elderly people during the pandemic as they were put in huge and separate group of same age, isolated from the rest of the community. It demoralized and made elderly people fall in pit of helpless situations where there were no options to chose from. They had to opt towards staying in nursing homes during pandemic, away from their families and community which made them isolated and vulnerable towards the pandemic as well as their mental and emotional health. It not only affected the elderly population, but also affected the families of elderly people, care givers, health professionals, racial minorities, low-income households and the communities as well.
Also, elderly care system’s funding is hugely disproportionated as it is largely invested towards institutionalization of care homes rather than investing on new and improved reforms like community-based care, home care options, community housing where people of all age groups can live as a community including elderly people as well. The system’s lack of appropriate funding, discrimination of elders and weak policies reflected during the crisis and outbreak of infection in nursing homes and care facilities. The early social work practice did not fully contribute towards advocating the elderly individual’s own right to choose but rather focused towards alleviation of care and support in nursing facilities and retirement homes. The earlier social work practices were limited by ageist practices and harsh policies that disregarded the elderly people’s need during the pandemic. The pandemic resulted in outrageous effect in health and stability of elderly people and care givers in nursing homes.

They had to opt towards staying in nursing homes during pandemic, away from their families and community which made them isolated and vulnerable towards the pandemic as well as their mental and emotional health. It not only affected the elderly population, but also affected the families of elderly people, care givers, health professionals, racial minorities, low-income households and the communities as well.
Also, elderly care system’s funding is hugely disproportionated as it is largely invested towards institutionalization of care homes rather than investing on new and improved reforms like community-based care, home care options, community housing where people of all age groups can live as a community including elderly people as well. The system’s lack of appropriate funding, discrimination of elders and weak policies reflected during the crisis and outbreak of infection in nursing homes and care facilities. The early social work practice did not fully contribute towards advocating the elderly individual’s own right to choose but rather focused towards alleviation of care and support in nursing facilities and retirement homes. The earlier social work practices were limited by ageist practices and harsh policies that disregarded the elderly people’s need during the pandemic. The pandemic resulted in outrageous effect in health and stability of elderly people and care givers in nursing homes. This issue is relevant to social service work practices because as a social service workers we need to advocate towards bringing positive changes in the reforms and policies directed towards taking care of elders.
Social service workers should be free of ageist practices and help elderly individuals to have their right to choose and afford home and community-based care facilities. We should advocate for the financial support from the government towards establishing equitable and affordable home and community-based care facilities for all elderly individuals without systemic discrimination.

The earlier social work practices were limited by ageist practices and harsh policies that disregarded the elderly people’s need during the pandemic. The pandemic resulted in outrageous effect in health and stability of elderly people and care givers in nursing homes. This issue is relevant to social service work practices because as a social service workers we need to advocate towards bringing positive changes in the reforms and policies directed towards taking care of elders.
Social service workers should be free of ageist practices and help elderly individuals to have their right to choose and afford home and community-based care facilities. We should advocate for the financial support from the government towards establishing equitable and affordable home and community-based care facilities for all elderly individuals without systemic discrimination.
The issue we have chosen to talk about is what COVID-19 pandemic has taught us about caring for our elders. The emphasis and reliance of elderly care on nursing homes and retirement homes during pandemic and its impact on elderly population has been notably alarming, during the pandemic. Lots of elderly population and healthcare professionals were infected and lost their lives in nursing homes and elderly care facilities because the government was unable to manage such facilities in safer and proper way. The government policies that favored nursing facilities and care institutions completely disregarded the integrity and right of choices of elderly people during the pandemic as they were put in huge and separate group of same age, isolated from the rest of the community. It demoralized and made elderly people fall in pit of helpless situations where there were no options to chose from. They had to opt towards staying in nursing homes during pandemic, away from their families and community which made them isolated and vulnerable towards the pandemic as well as their mental and emotional health. It not only affected the elderly population, but also affected the families of elderly people, care givers, health professionals, racial minorities, low-income households and the communities as well.
Also, elderly care system’s funding is hugely disproportionated as it is largely invested towards institutionalization of care homes rather than investing on new and improved reforms like community-based care, home care options, community housing where people of all age groups can live as a community including elderly people as well.

Lots of elderly population and healthcare professionals were infected and lost their lives in nursing homes and elderly care facilities because the government was unable to manage such facilities in safer and proper way. The government policies that favored nursing facilities and care institutions completely disregarded the integrity and right of choices of elderly people during the pandemic as they were put in huge and separate group of same age, isolated from the rest of the community. It demoralized and made elderly people fall in pit of helpless situations where there were no options to chose from. They had to opt towards staying in nursing homes during pandemic, away from their families and community which made them isolated and vulnerable towards the pandemic as well as their mental and emotional health. It not only affected the elderly population, but also affected the families of elderly people, care givers, health professionals, racial minorities, low-income households and the communities as well.
Also, elderly care system’s funding is hugely disproportionated as it is largely invested towards institutionalization of care homes rather than investing on new and improved reforms like community-based care, home care options, community housing where people of all age groups can live as a community including elderly people as well. The system’s lack of appropriate funding, discrimination of elders and weak policies reflected during the crisis and outbreak of infection in nursing homes and care facilities. The early social work practice did not fully contribute towards advocating the elderly individual’s own right to choose but rather focused towards alleviation of care and support in nursing facilities and retirement homes. The earlier social work practices were limited by ageist practices and harsh policies that disregarded the elderly people’s need during the pandemic. The pandemic resulted in outrageous effect in health and stability of elderly people and care givers in nursing homes. This issue is relevant to social service work practices because as a social service workers we need to advocate towards bringing positive changes in the reforms and policies directed towards taking care of elders.
Social service workers should be free of ageist practices and help elderly individuals to have their right to choose and afford home and community-based care facilities. We should advocate for the financial support from the government towards establishing equitable and affordable home and community-based care facilities for all elderly individuals without systemic discrimination.

Also, elderly care system’s funding is hugely disproportionated as it is largely invested towards institutionalization of care homes rather than investing on new and improved reforms like community-based care, home care options, community housing where people of all age groups can live as a community including elderly people as well.

The early social work practice did not fully contribute towards advocating the elderly individual’s own right to choose but rather focused towards alleviation of care and support in nursing facilities and retirement homes.

The pandemic resulted in outrageous effect in health and stability of elderly people and care givers in nursing homes. This issue is relevant to social service work practices because as a social service workers we need to advocate towards bringing positive changes in the reforms and policies directed towards taking care of elders.
Social service workers should be free of ageist practices and help elderly individuals to have their right to choose and afford home and community-based care facilities. We should advocate for the financial support from the government towards establishing equitable and affordable home and community-based care facilities for all elderly individuals without systemic discrimination.

This issue is relevant to social service work practices because as a social service workers we need to advocate towards bringing positive changes in the reforms and policies directed towards taking care of elders.
Social service workers should be free of ageist practices and help elderly individuals to have their right to choose and afford home and community-based care facilities. We should advocate for the financial support from the government towards establishing equitable and affordable home and community-based care facilities for all elderly individuals without systemic discrimination.
The issue we have chosen to talk about is what COVID-19 pandemic has taught us about caring for our elders. The emphasis and reliance of elderly care on nursing homes and retirement homes during pandemic and its impact on elderly population has been notably alarming, during the pandemic. Lots of elderly population and healthcare professionals were infected and lost their lives in nursing homes and elderly care facilities because the government was unable to manage such facilities in safer and proper way. The government policies that favored nursing facilities and care institutions completely disregarded the integrity and right of choices of elderly people during the pandemic as they were put in huge and separate group of same age, isolated from the rest of the community. It demoralized and made elderly people fall in pit of helpless situations where there were no options to chose from. They had to opt towards staying in nursing homes during pandemic, away from their families and community which made them isolated and vulnerable towards the pandemic as well as their mental and emotional health. It not only affected the elderly population, but also affected the families of elderly people, care givers, health professionals, racial minorities, low-income households and the communities as well.
Also, elderly care system’s funding is hugely disproportionated as it is largely invested towards institutionalization of care homes rather than investing on new and improved reforms like community-based care, home care options, community housing where people of all age groups can live as a community including elderly people as well. The system’s lack of appropriate funding, discrimination of elders and weak policies reflected during the crisis and outbreak of infection in nursing homes and care facilities.

The government policies that favored nursing facilities and care institutions completely disregarded the integrity and right of choices of elderly people during the pandemic as they were put in huge and separate group of same age, isolated from the rest of the community. It demoralized and made elderly people fall in pit of helpless situations where there were no options to chose from. They had to opt towards staying in nursing homes during pandemic, away from their families and community which made them isolated and vulnerable towards the pandemic as well as their mental and emotional health. It not only affected the elderly population, but also affected the families of elderly people, care givers, health professionals, racial minorities, low-income households and the communities as well.
Also, elderly care system’s funding is hugely disproportionated as it is largely invested towards institutionalization of care homes rather than investing on new and improved reforms like community-based care, home care options, community housing where people of all age groups can live as a community including elderly people as well. The system’s lack of appropriate funding, discrimination of elders and weak policies reflected during the crisis and outbreak of infection in nursing homes and care facilities. The early social work practice did not fully contribute towards advocating the elderly individual’s own right to choose but rather focused towards alleviation of care and support in nursing facilities and retirement homes. The earlier social work practices were limited by ageist practices and harsh policies that disregarded the elderly people’s need during the pandemic. The pandemic resulted in outrageous effect in health and stability of elderly people and care givers in nursing homes. This issue is relevant to social service work practices because as a social service workers we need to advocate towards bringing positive changes in the reforms and policies directed towards taking care of elders.
Social service workers should be free of ageist practices and help elderly individuals to have their right to choose and afford home and community-based care facilities. We should advocate for the financial support from the government towards establishing equitable and affordable home and community-based care facilities for all elderly individuals without systemic discrimination.

The system’s lack of appropriate funding, discrimination of elders and weak policies reflected during the crisis and outbreak of infection in nursing homes and care facilities. The early social work practice did not fully contribute towards advocating the elderly individual’s own right to choose but rather focused towards alleviation of care and support in nursing facilities and retirement homes. The earlier social work practices were limited by ageist practices and harsh policies that disregarded the elderly people’s need during the pandemic. The pandemic resulted in outrageous effect in health and stability of elderly people and care givers in nursing homes. This issue is relevant to social service work practices because as a social service workers we need to advocate towards bringing positive changes in the reforms and policies directed towards taking care of elders.
Social service workers should be free of ageist practices and help elderly individuals to have their right to choose and afford home and community-based care facilities. We should advocate for the financial support from the government towards establishing equitable and affordable home and community-based care facilities for all elderly individuals without systemic discrimination.
The issue we have chosen to talk about is what COVID-19 pandemic has taught us about caring for our elders. The emphasis and reliance of elderly care on nursing homes and retirement homes during pandemic and its impact on elderly population has been notably alarming, during the pandemic. Lots of elderly population and healthcare professionals were infected and lost their lives in nursing homes and elderly care facilities because the government was unable to manage such facilities in safer and proper way. The government policies that favored nursing facilities and care institutions completely disregarded the integrity and right of choices of elderly people during the pandemic as they were put in huge and separate group of same age, isolated from the rest of the community. It demoralized and made elderly people fall in pit of helpless situations where there were no options to chose from. They had to opt towards staying in nursing homes during pandemic, away from their families and community which made them isolated and vulnerable towards the pandemic as well as their mental and emotional health. It not only affected the elderly population, but also affected the families of elderly people, care givers, health professionals, racial minorities, low-income households and the communities as well.
