Thank you, Mr. Robillard.
The reassessment of clients and their families is probably the greatest need observed by the country's nurses. All of the seniors are medically assessed and sent home, and then they are forgotten for weeks, months, or longer. That is when accidents happen, loss of balance, falls; people forget to take medication or are sent to emergency or readmitted to hospital, and the families scramble constantly.
The nursing profession asks that there be more continuous reassessments and coordinated care, whether we are talking about physical, mental or social health. You have heard it in other presentations; people cannot live in isolation, and even truer for the elderly, as this weakens their physical and mental condition.
As I mentioned several times, care has to centre around the person's safety, and not only on what the system permits, home care.
