AJC Investigation Into Stark Realities of Georgia's Senior Homes Coming To GPB-TV

The challenge of finding the right balance of independence and
attentive care for long-term senior living can be challenging –
even gut-wrenching – for families. And when it comes to private pay
senior care, costs can be incredibly expensive. Atlanta
Journal-Constitution investigative reporter Carrie Teegardin has
spent a year looking for what families won’t see on tours of more
than 400 private pay senior care facilities in Georgia. Her
investigation found hundreds of safety violations, incidents of
physical abuse, and assaults to dignity that often go unreported.
GPB TV will air a special on the investigation on Nov. 14 at 7 p.m.
called Unprotected: Georgia's Broken Senior Care Industry.
