OM DENNE EPISODE
This time on Code WACK!
Imagine being cut off from Mom - a nursing home resident - for months. You can't bring her favorite foods, or help dress her, hug her, or even hold her hand.
For thousands of families during the COVID-19 pandemic, this became a heartbreaking reality. And without new laws, advocates say, it could very well happen again.
That's why they are fighting to ensure our loved ones are never again separated from those they depend on most in nursing homes and other long-term care settings
Today we're speaking with Tony Chicotel, senior staff attorney with California Advocates for Nursing Home Reform, or CANHR. For decades, Tony has fought to protect the rights of nursing home residents. And he says the isolation and neglect that families experienced during COVID was one of the most painful chapters of his career.
This is part two of a two-part series on the Essential Caregiver’s Act.
