Understanding Me:
The Younger Resident’s Perspective

Order# RP110

18 minutes
resident interviews
$150 purchase; $75 rental

Younger residents with chronic conditions and permanent disabilities speak out about their lives in long term care. Expectations, dreams, and life plans have disappeared. Dealing with an environment developed for older individuals, they describe a daily quest for relevance and respect. For some it’s frustration and anger. For others with support of family and the facility, they create a life of substance in long-term care. Filmed at Levindale Hebrew Geriatric Center and Hospital.
