      abstract = {This book explores key factors long-term care recipients  have identified as impacting their quality of life and  offers programmatic and policy recommendations to enhance  well-being within long-term care communities. Leadership  and staff who work in nursing homes and other residential  care communities serve as gatekeepers to resident  well-being, often without recognizing how residents quality  of life is impacted by their decision-making. This book  takes a life domain approach to build on research-based  studies that document key drivers of care recipients  quality of life, including relationships, autonomy and  respect, activities and meals, environment, and care. Using  a framework that enhances understanding of resident quality  of life, it outlines practical, programmatic, and policy  suggestions for long-term care stakeholders, such as  administrators, managers, front-line staff, family members,  and policy-makers, whose directives and actions impact the  lived experience of long-term care residents. As such, this  book serves as a roadmap for leaders and managers of  long-term care communities, along with policymakers who  regulate health and human services, to best structure care  environments to maximize quality of life and well-being for  long-term care recipients.},
