"On a corner of the internet, the Ontario government is storing thousands of publicly available reports about the state of the province’s long-term care homes.
The documents come from inspections conducted by Ministry of Long-Term Care officials every year across hundreds of homes.
They go back more than a decade, rich in data about how the homes function, and how often they fail to meet legislated standards for elder care."

Now that we are experiencing an increase of elderly - who is going to take care of them in #nursing homes if families can’t do it - because they have to work hard to save for their old age since our social security is being depleted by cca 2035 or sooner….

#GOP Bill prohibits #HHS from enforcing minimum #staffing standards for #nursinghomes. #Republicans decided it's about time somebody stuck it to these nursing home freeloading #patients who have too easy lives in their too well staffed #facilities...

States often use the federal money generated through the taxes to pay the institutions more than #Medicaid would otherwise pay. (Medicaid generally pays the lowest fees for care, compared with #Medicare & private #insurance.)
#Hospitals & #NursingHomes say they use these extra Medicaid dollars to expand or add new services & improve #care for all patients.

"The hidden costs are astronomical," said Chima Ndumele, a professor at the Yale School of #PublicHealth.
Belt-tightening that would target states could translate into fewer #HealthServices, medical professionals & even #hospitals, especially in #rural communities.
The #GOP's plan would curtail a practice, known as #ProviderTaxes, that nearly every state has used for decades to increase #Medicaid payments to hospitals, #NursingHomes & other providers & to private managed-care companies. -
The #Senate plan to slash #Medicaid & #ACA marketplace #funding could lead to nearly 12 million more people without insurance by 2034, the #CBO estimates. That in turn would harm the finances of #hospitals, #NursingHomes & #community #health centers—which would have to absorb more of the cost of treating #uninsured people—& may force them to reduce services & employees, as well as close facilities.

The way someone treats seniors speaks volumes about their politics.
These Senate Republicans just voted to screw seniors over to give billionaires like Donald Trump a tax cut.

Was the vote before or after #SusanCollins fell asleep? Also, maybe #UselessSusanCollins shouldn't have voted to push the #BigUglyBill forward and not have voted for #JusticeKavanagh and other #Trump appointees?
Senate rejects Collins amendment to support rural hospitals
by WGME Staff
Tue, July 1st 2025 at 7:18 AM"#Maine Senator Susan Collins proposed her own amendment to President Donald Trump's self-proclaimed '#BigBeautifulBill.'
"She called for doubling proposed funding for rural health care providers to $50 billion.
"Senator Collins said the change would be paid for by increasing the tax rate on the wealthy.
"Collins noted the recent string of hospital closures and the current financial strain being put on #NursingHomes.
" 'Mr. President, when these facilities close their doors, the people they serve are often left behind without access to healthcare. This amendment would help keep them open and caring for those who live in these rural communities,' Sen. Collins said.
"Politico reports the Senate ultimately voted against the amendment by a vote of 78 to 22."
