As of last July, the pandemic had claimed the lives of 39,725 seniors in long-term care settings in Canada, data gathered by the National Institute on Aging show. Residents in long-term care are more vulnerable to infections, the authors of the CSA Group standards wrote. The standards were developed by a committee of experts on long-term care, representatives from provincial health authorities, researchers, engineers and seniors’ advocates. The standards also incorporate feedback from hundreds of residents and their families, as well as long-term care workers and managers.
