The city of Toronto may adopt the Butterfly program in its city-run nursing homes, it is a new long term care model that has been very successful in Peel region, outside the city. I was happy to read this article in the paper recently. The mayor read the original article that I featured on this blog post and asked if it could be brought to the city of Toronto. The goal is to make long term care homes less institutionalized and more home like and caring.

How can people not respond to being treated with dignity, respect, and love?
Wonderful post, Christine!
Oh my gosh, Christine, how wonderful! I hope the states jump on this, though I'm not very optimistic.
I'm not hopeful! Most of the LTC in our province are for-profits. I'm not sure how many are run by the city.
More home-like and caring for the win. I hope this happens EVERYWHERE.
It is a shame that most are for profit.
