Kindred Home Care arrogant attitude towards their employees could lead to Unions in Care Homes in New Brunswick!!!!

Charles;

This story and the Interview that you did with the young whistle-blower is a very good story, what the story shows is an inherent problem with privatization, governments seems to get all horny of the concept of privatization and P3 relationship. In the end privatization ends up costing more than if nursing homes were state run. One of the advantages of state run senior home care is the standard of care would be the same across the board, the other advantage would be that the employees would be paid what they are worth and they would have benefits and they would have protection from CUPE.
I am not sure but I think that those how work in the field have to certified with some human service certificate, which means that they had to pay for their field of study.

If you think about it, at the end of the day the home care specialist is not getting the best return for their investment.

Your correct privatization is all about profits. I heard horrendous stories about some of the nursing homes providing inadequate services to their elderly, these shady operations provide two environments, one when the family is present and the other when the family leaves. Anecdotally, I have heard incidences were the resident diet was restricted in order to save on costs. I have also been told that it appears that some senior care home gets notified prior to government inspection so they can be in compliance to the regulations.

I have concerns about senior citizen’s home, I am sixty two and still in good shape, but that might not be the case in 10, 15 years from now and I might have to be put into an old folks home, that is very worrying for me to realize that I may be put into the hands of a business model that only thinks about big profits not about the quality of care that I will receive. I think I would choose death over a nursing home.

You talked about Unionization for the employees in the nursing homes, I agree with you that they should be unionized. However, that reality may be difficult to achieve because of the certification process. Currently the laws favor the Employer which makes it difficult for employees to unionize. Employers will do everything in their power to prevent their employees from unionizing, the big one is terminating the leaders (shit disturbers). To get unionized is by majority vote which most of the time is difficult to get because of those laws that favor the employer.

If anyone in the Senior home care wish to get unionized contact me, Charles knows how to get a hold of me.
