WATCH Party: No Country for Old People
No Country For Old People is a cautionary tale exposing decades of lethal neglect in Nursing Facilities. A systemic crisis caused by an industry that subscribes to the notion that honesty is far less profitable than dishonesty and views human beings as commodities.
The sizzle reel is available, and two of the primary drivers behind the creation of this powerful documentary – Susie and Rick - have graciously made time to join us for a watch party. We will begin with the viewing (approximately 20 minutes) and follow with Q/A and discussion about this critical societal issue.
