The article below has some useful things to consider.
And it does not even mention the option of the frail parent's living situation being massively changed such that "going home" becomes the best option.
Nick here is training folk up to be consumers of commercialised aged care.
Re-peopling the parent's house, the parent moving in with family/friends - options that give continued domestic life.

Looking at #CommercialisedAgedCare in #Australia.
#LetsGetCare, a home care package manager for those who will find their own carers etc using #HomeCarePackage funding provided by the federal government, is, AIUI, owned by #ArgentNominees, which is owned by #myHomecare, which is owned by #AustralianUnity.
Note the, to my mind, potentially misleading name myHomecare - far too close to the federal government's myagedcare. [grimace]
The #AgedCareIndustry is corporation centred.

Been told by management in a facility that my complaints about failures caused by understaffing had the floor staff feeling unappreciated.
The managers in Australian aged care in my experience ... smh ... Vogons ... with sly, cunning, manipulative, profit-seeking & cost-cutting skills too.... interbred with Ferengi and Romulans?

How to make neglect, isolation and warehousing of the frail aged ok:
(yeah, I admit it, I'm actually looking to drag this tangle of weeds into the sunlight)
"Just remember, they've had their life, you shouldn't let looking after them ruin yours."

Satire - Arrrgh, they want me to phone them once a fortnight and speak with them for 15 minutes. They're had their life and now they're trying to ruin mine!

If any profession includes so many ethically flexible people that it can allow decades of inhumane care to roll on to the financial benefit of #CommercialisedAgedCare companies then your profession stinks.
This applies to the medics who work in #AgedCareFacilities as well.Doctors and nurses, especially doctors, have powerful industry bodies with significant political clout and large media profile.
