I think that we should listen to them. That's the most obvious issue that I've noticed. These women in need, who have no choice but to live in an establishment, feel as though they're losing their value as people. They feel diminished. I think that we need to listen to them. Many committees work well and do great things, but often only young people and well-meaning professionals sit on those committees. That said, we must take the time to listen to senior women. We must listen to women in establishments or CHSLDs, but also in their home and social environment. I'm thinking of the people from the Réseau FADOQ who spoke earlier, but whom I didn't have the chance to listen to. The network carries out a great deal of work when it comes to leisure activities, help with management and assistance with social responsibilities, for example. It's less obvious. I think that work must be done, not only by the people themselves and their communities, but also by the authorities.
