What problem would you like to solve?

Neglect of residents at nursing homes

Why is it important to solve? Why is it relevant for the community?

Many nursing home residents do not receive adequate food or assistance from nurses with cleaning or obtaining necessities like clothing. Also there can a lack of action toward individuals that are disruptive or violent against other nursing home residents.

What idea do you have to address the problem?

Nursing homes should be investigated and checked on by city agencies and representatives like council members so they can be protected and heard more.

Who would that help?

The disability and elderly community

What NYC borough would benefit from your idea?

Bronx
