Alberta Canada Removes Regulations for Standards of Care in Nursing Homes

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


 
The Health Minister says the regulations have not been updated since 1985. It looks more like removed. Coming to the U.S. soon? A sad commentary on our so called Progressive neighbors to the North.
Here is the story:
 

Alberta’s new continuing care regulations come into effect April 1, but critics are questioning why the new rules do not prescribe how many hours of care residents of a facility should receive. 

The Nursing Homes Operations Regulation said each resident of a facility should get a minimum 1.9 hours of nursing and personal care each day, but the new Continuing Care Act Regulations are silent on the issue. 

“Until now, if an Albertan wanted to be assured that their loved one would get a minimum standard of care, it was in the law,” NDP Leader Rachel Notley said at a news conference Tuesday. “Now there is no guarantee.”

The new regulations were approved by cabinet in a closed-door meeting. They were published online at the end of February.

Questions about the new continuing care standards come as the government continues to face criticism over the case of Blair Canniff, an Edmonton stroke patient who was taken to a motel in Leduc by a contracted service provider after he was discharged from the Royal Alexandra Hospital earlier this month. 

Canniff is paralyzed on one side and uses a wheelchair. He says he was told he was going to a long-term care facility. Instead, he was dropped at the motel, where he was given fast food meals and struggled to get into the bathroom and the bed. He was moved back to the hospital a week later.

“New rules do not prescribe how many hours of care residents of a facility should receive.” “The vulnerable in our world are supposed to be taken care of, and now the government is making it so that isn’t even a thing anymore. 
 
 
Basically, now what this means is if you have not set yourself up for retirement, which the majority of the population has not because who are we f****** kidding? In this day and age, it’s hard enough to put milk and eggs in everyone’s fridges. It means that you’re not gonna it’s not funded.
 
 
 The regulations do not mention a minimum number of required hours of nursing care. “We are moving to zero hours of care. This is extremely dangerous,” said Heather Smith, United Nurses of Alberta president, in a statement. Smith said while that was clearly inadequate, at least there was a minimum legal standard.” United Nurses of Alberta Says “New regulations eliminate all nursing care requirements for residents of continuing care homes in Alberta”

 

The best of the Canadian swamp.
