Thank you.

First, I would like to thank the witnesses for being here today.

We are seeing that people who take care of the elderly in nursing homes are also victims of abuse, and that may lead to more situations of abuse toward their patients. Could this violence be the reflection of poor screening of staff, insufficient training, or a combination of the two? Could there be other factors?
