The Delivering Dignity report by the Commission on Dignity in Care for Older People provides direction on how to improve care for older people. Six inter-related issues are highlighted: interacting with care; staying compassionate; the 'Golden rule' of doing to others.  This article argues that a better understanding is needed of how to develop a sustainable culture.
