Poor staffing contributes to missed care in residential aged care

Profit before people (residents) Greedy investors who don’t care about the care of frail people with medical health issues. Salaries will always constitute the greater part of these care facilities so therefore there will be cut backs on staff, maintenance and catering and equipment. There are no mandated levels for staffing ratios in these facilities so therefore the nursing care of residents are comprised. These care facilities are an offshoot of hospitals which can not afford residents to take up acute beds so they are shunted off to a profit making facility whose only reason to be in the business is to make money/profit at the expense of the venerable people who most have worked hard and lead productive lives and now treated like “animals” i.e being cared for by non caring and non experienced staff/carers.
