Good to see more funding for one of the Champlain Region LTC homes. Non-profits have to work very hard to raise funds for expansion.

Wouldn't it be great if @ONgov started to look at alternatives to large LTC institutions. @NatKusendova @fordnation

Families also want to see staffing issues resolved - residents suffer. Wage parity will reduce attrition. @NatKusendova @fordnation @sylviajones
AdvantAge Ontario continues to urge government to equalize wages within the health system to help province meet targets. See @CityNews Media today: tinyurl.com/dnew63zw #onpoli @fordnation NatKusendova @LisaLevin1
We are proud to have collaborated with @ForgetForMoment to bring beautiful planter boxes to local #LTC homes. ottawacitizen.com/opinion/pe… via @ottawacitizen
Planter boxes generously donated by the Forget For a Moment Foundation will bring smiles to the faces of residents, staff and caregivers in 21 #LTC homes in our region. forgetforamoment.org/project…
We need urgent action. Health care funding should be on addressing recruitment and retention issues and ensuring the best possible health outcomes for patients and LTC residents. readthemaple.com/for-profit-… Where is the plan? @SylviaJonesMPP
It's important that we hear about these culture change initiatives that have such a positive impact on residents' quality of life.

Fingers crossed that the advocacy groups will be successful in their challenge. Bill 7 is cruel and takes away the rights of frail seniors and their families waiting for LTC in hospital.

Earlier this year a piece of land in Ottawa set aside for non-profit health care was dealt to a for-profit, long-term care provider by the @fordnation government.
With the Ford government, private profits always trump the public good. #onpoli #onhealth

Another study recommends caregiver needs be assessed by healthcare providers:

Good to see that there is a new standard addressing mental health.
