Danish Healthcare

A fascinating article from the Toronto Star discusses the Danish approach to seniors healthcare. The Danes apparently work very hard at keeping seniors integrated in the community. The Scandinavians enjoy an excellent reputation for healthcare in general. It seems that they apply a community based approach to care for their senior citizens.

Many long-term-care facilities in Denmark and Sweden are homey, intimate environments where quality of life is paramount. Fresh flowers on dining-room tables, wine with meals and real camaraderie among staff and residents are among the hallmarks.

Perhaps it's no wonder that Danes are the happiest people in the world. We found this on an intriguing website about Denmark. It appears to be an ambitious project intended for business and travel users.
