Thank you, Chair, and thank you to all the witnesses for joining us today.
My questions are for Ms. Krystal. I want to talk about long-term care facilities even though this comes under provincial jurisdiction.
At the 24th meeting of the health committee, Region of Peel CAO Nancy Polsinelli testified about the long-term care homes that the region manages. She discussed how the region has approached managing its homes during the COVID-19 pandemic.
In your opinion, as someone whose hospital has taken over the management of a private long-term care facility, is there a difference in the quality of care in private long-term care homes compared to the public option?
