Building Choice into Long Term Care
In the past, fate has dictated the passing of life in what are euphemistically called "nursing homes". But there is no longer a need for such a fate, if we are willing to work to change the rules.

For choice to be real, all funding for Long Term Care must be available when  LTC consumers and their families make a choice of where to receive LTC.  There needs to be a single point of entry, to make it eaiser to people to get the information and support they need, and a single point that funds the supports that people and their families decide they need.

This single point can't be any of the current providers of LTC, since providers have a vested interest in getting (and forcing) people to use their supports.  The single point of entry must be a different, seperate organization.
