A W5 investigation puts the spotlight on lack of care and alleged abuse in long term care homes. Families seeking justice, accusing nursing homes of neglecting their loved ones, share their stories with Sandie Rinaldo.
Dozens of these families are going to court against Revera Inc., a giant Canadian chain which owns 500 senior facilities worldwide, including 76 long term care homes in Canada; 53 of those facilities are in Ontario. Will legal action lead to change?
