About this episode

A New Brunswick woman known as "Alice" wandered from her care home 12 times before dying cold and alone. The province's deputy senior advocate tells us what went wrong. Her B.C. counterpart says seniors there are also vulnerable with more than 7,000 waiting for a bed and no plan to fix the problem.
