Speaking Up for Nursing Home Residents Everywhere

As someone in her 40s living with multiple rare autoimmune diseases, Nancy Stevens doesn't necessarily seem like a typical nursing home resident. But her journey through the long-term care system came with the same frustrations, challenges, and disappointments experienced far too often by people twice her age. Stevens uses her experiences as fuel to help hundreds of fellow nursing home residents around the country, providing support and advocacy through the National Virtual Residents' Council and other organizations fighting for the rights of residents. In honor of Residents' Rights Month, Stevens joins the podcast to discuss her vital work and vision for the future of residential care.
