The subject of assisted living administrators is close to my heart because both of my grandmother's currently reside in nursing homes and are taken care of by the staff of those facilities. There have been a few instances where my family questioned the leadership of the staff of one of my grandmother's facility. A movement towards requiring stricter trainings is in the positive for me. Elderly citizens living in facilities are some of the most taken advantage of and least cared for throughout the country. The 80-hour training course would help ease the worry that some family members might have about those working with their elderly and/or sick family members. My grandmother has dementia and the enhanced training and continuing education given to both AITS and administrators would aid those working with patients like my grandmother who are mentally impaired.
