Abstract
Abstract
The following article serves as a means to highlight the need for increased scrutiny of the value and potentially adverse effect the 24-h news cycle has on individuals, particularly residents in a long-term care setting amid the COVID-19 pandemic or other large-scale catastrophic events. The work will emphasize what is currently known regarding the impact media plays on an individual, including mood, opinion, worldview, and overall mental health and wellness. The conclusion will focus on discussing current means of assessment with future recommendations for heightened evaluation in this already vulnerable population.
