Senior Moments

 

September 12, 2024

 

On Page A2 of today’s Post-Dispatch, we learn that the governor cut $2.5 million for a program that investigates complaints of abuse and neglect in nursing homes; that a state representative called for a vote to override the cuts, and that the vote failed to do so.

 

On Page A4, we learn that a Missouri nursing home is facing a wrongful death lawsuit because of neglect and improper care. (Details provided.)

 

Apparently, some members of the legislature don’t anticipate being in care homes in their senior years. Good luck with that.
