Honoring Women Living in Long-Term Care

Working in long-term care (LTC), I have had the privilege of interacting with and caring for numerous extraordinary women. Today, one of my residents told me she is publishing a word-search for chronic diseases to help other residents who experience boredom or loneliness in LTC. Another resident with whom I discuss the new respiratory syncytial virus vaccine recounts her work as a public health nurse during the acquired immunodeficiency syndrome pandemic. Thes remarkable residents are just two examples of women in LTC who deserve a tribute.
