LTCCC's Family Empower Half Hour: Navigating Ageism as a Family Advocate

Ageism is everywhere, but it is especially pervasive in nursing homes. As family members, ageism - prejudice or discrimination on the grounds of a person's age - can be a barrier for advocating for your loved ones.
On this LTCCC Family Empower Half Hour, LTCCC's Family Empowerment Team (Jenine Ferrari & Gloria Murray) is joined by author Bette Ann Moskowitz (Finishing Up: On Aging and Ageism) to talk about identifying ageism as family members and advocates for residents in nursing homes and other long-term care settings.
