Re: 2011 Senate Bill 5581 (Creating a nursing home safety net assessment)  by SIDNY on March 7, 2011 

The problem with Washington State nursing homes lies more with over regulation than underfunding. Allowing competition, rather than siphoning off dollars from other  essential services would better serve the public.         



Re: 2011 Senate Bill 5581 (Creating a nursing home safety net assessment)  by Lee Ayers on March 7, 2011 

 I am urging all Legislatures to SUPPORT Senate Bill 5581.


We need to protect our most vulnerable residents, and jobs to caregivers.


 


We need to stop all these cuts NOW!


PLEASE! support this bill.
