Elderly care mistreatment in focus

Recent discoveries of overcrowding, unlicensed operations, and mistreatment at elderly care facilities in Kanchanaburi and Nonthaburi have brought public attention to systemic vulnerabilities in Thailand's elder care sector.

In response to these incidents, authorities have initiated nationwide inspections of similar care facilities. The findings have also generated widespread calls for the implementation of tougher enforcement measures to ensure the safety and proper regulation of elderly care operations.
