Listen "Overworked and underpaid in LTC"
Episode Synopsis
The leader of one of the main health care unions in Nova Scotia were repeating her call for help in addressing the challenges in Long Term Care this week. Nan McFadgen is the president of CUPE-NS. And she is worried about the impact the impact of low wages and staffing levels are having on workers and the people they care for. McFadgen admits she was frustrated in her appearance in front of the Standing Committee on Health this week. But she is offering guidance and science to back up their calls for higher pay and more time with each resident. And she says it comes down to the willingness of the Progressive Conservative government to make the changes necessary.
