Star Investigation: At the height of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, Ontario Premier Doug Ford promised more hands-on care for long-term care homes’ residents. His government pledged to reach four hours of daily care for each long-term care resident by 2024-25. New from @fxplante.bsky.social:

But a year past the government’s deadline, nearly 300 long-term care homes still don’t meet the promised standard of four hours of daily care, according to records obtained by the Star through a freedom-of-information request. www.thestar.com/news/investi...

The Ford government said it met its goal, with the provincial average increasing slightly above four hours of daily care last year. But far from every resident benefits from that minimum. Here's a closer look at the data — and which facilities provided the least amount of direct care.
