According to a 2021 survey, the majority of respondents (who had loved ones staying currently or within the past year in long-term care) in Canada rated the quality of the long-term care and facilities as excellent or good. For example, nine in ten rated the overall cleanliness and upkeep of the building as good or excellent. In comparison, just three quarters rated the quality of the food served as good or excellent.
