A Time to Care offers a hard-hitting insider’s account of the impact of the coronavirus pandemic in residential care homes around Britain.
A deeply personal story with much wider resonance, it lays bare what you don’t know and what care home operators don’t want you to know. Describing the toll inflicted by the pandemic on residents and staff alike, it also recalls the courage and generosity inspired by extraordinary circumstances.
