ABSTRACT
Nursing leaders have a responsibility to promote and facilitate social engagement and connectedness to mitigate social isolation in long-term care (LTC). The COVID-19 pandemic has emphasized longstanding problems in LTC facilities, such as staff mix, workload, and support. The pandemic has shed light on the severe deleterious effect of social isolation and the critical importance of maintaining social engagement and connectedness, especially in times of crisis or major change. Staff education and ongoing support cannot be overemphasized. Critical nursing leadership and interdisciplinary collaboration engaging all team members are essential in operationalizing nonpharmacological approaches that foster the well-being of residents with dementia.
