Care homes should be run as part of health care

We have become a society of money first, forgetting our elderly and their needs in later life. We are all going there. Long-term care homes should be run as part of our publicly-funded health care system. They shouldn’t operate on a for-profit basis by corporations that are more concerned with making money for their shareholders than they are with caring for those who live in the home. This process, I believe, is exchanging life for the greed of money. Please, let’s make the change.
