When June Prokop, a retired nurse and current resident at Sault Ste. Marie’s F.J. Davey Home, was asked why she wants to receive four hours of direct care, she responded: “It gets lonely here sometimes, so having the support of the staff makes it easier.”

Prokop is just one of the many seniors who call long-term care (LTC) “home.” And she, like so many others, wants more time with her care providers. To make sure that happens, seniors are adding their voices to RNAO’s #4Hours4Seniors social media campaign, a unique photo project that shines a spotlight on the personal side of much-needed staffing changes in LTC.
