   I’m a CNA in a nursing home, and the environment’s depressing. People get sick and die quite a bit. Some people never get visitors. I really feel for these people, and I think it’s great that you’re putting this information out there.

   I am going to school right now to get my psw ticket. I am going to do a project on depression in long term facilities. I was wondering if you could email some information on depression.Or maybe you know of a book that I could get at the library. Thank you Cindy

   Hello Cindy,

   This topic is a lot larger than most people think. I'd be happy to send you some information directly to your email address. Thanks for stopping by.

   I am doing an assignment on depression in long term care in facilities. I would like to know if you have some websities or books on the role of a personal support worker. How they would deal with and help with the depression. Thanks Cindy

   Hi Cindy,

   Did you receive the other email I sent you with resources for depression in long-term care? I am happy that you are using our site as an adjunct to your studies. I am, however, hesitant to do too much research for you (give you fish) when it would benefit you more to follow the same channels (fish yourself). The site below provides some information on using the internet for research. This should give you an idea of where to start and how to know which information to trust.

   Best of luck with your assignment,
   Lori
