Tireless, selfless, caring, giving, dedicated, determined, focused, brave, compassionate, heroic—thank you to all our caregivers!

We should ring our bells in recognition of our healthcare workers on the front lines and in prayer for those who are sick. Even though we must remain apart to fight COVID-19, we can be together in sound and spirit. #HealthyatHome #TeamMississippi #CombatCOVID19 #RingYourBell
For one of the most regulated sectors in the country, enforcement of skilled nursing care rules can vary wildly depending on location. Transparency and predictability are crucial so providers can give the best care possible. providermagazine.com/news/Pa…
Senior care providers are held to the highest standard when it comes to what they do. The people who enforce those rules should be too. Huge variations in fines and enforcement aren't fair to the people who care for the most vulnerable. providermagazine.com/news/Pa…
"This is going to be very damaging if it goes into effect." Elder care leaders say that a proposed regulation will cut crucial funds from an already struggling system. This is no way to treat our elderly. wlrn.org/post/retirement-gro…
Our nation is measured by how we care for those how cannot care for themselves. Both sides of the aisle know this and have called on the administration to not go through with damaging cuts to elder care. mcknightsseniorliving.com/ho…
In a time when Republicans and Democrats can barely agree on anything, when they do agree, it's time to pay attention. No more cuts to senior care! mcknights.com/news/cms-propo…
Both Republicans and Democrats can agree that seniors shouldn't be the target of cuts. Medicaid funds numerous senior services and those funds would be cut under this regulation. Grandma and grandpa deserve better! mcknights.com/news/cms-propo…
A new report says there has been "commendable," "enlightening" quality improvement in nursing homes in the past 30 years. Less use of antipsychotics and restraints while increasing direct staffing ratios. We are always trying to get better! mcknights.com/news/study-nur…
A new, medical journal shows that over the past 30 years, nursing care providers are admitting more people, caring for a more diverse population, and have improved quality dramatically. jamda.com/article/S1525-8610…
Even some of Trump's most ardent supporters are calling on his administration to revise a rule that would cut Medicaid funding for senior care. With good reason! These people are frail and vulnerable and more cuts would put their care at risk. orlandosentinel.com/politics…
Here's something we can all agree on: our seniors deserve the best. That's why Governors from both parties are asking @CMSGov to pause Medicaid cuts that would slash funds for senior care. apnews.com/92d6c29decdda9703…
Governors on both sides of the aisle are calling on @CMSGov to revise a proposed rule that would cut Medicaid. It doesn't matter which side you're on, this rule would cut money for senior care, and they deserve better.
