Chatham-Kent Health Coalition chairperson Shirley Roebuck speaks during a protest about issues in long-term care homes outside MPP Rick Nicholls’s office in Chatham, Ont., on Wednesday, June 24, 2020. Mark Malone\/Chatham Daily News\/Postmedia Network<\/span> <\/em><\/p>\nDental hygienist Pat Lambier says she\u2019s seen oral problems in local long-term care homes as appalling as those she faced in Indonesian refugee camps.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt was like a Third World country,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n
Lambier stopped working in Southwestern Ontario homes six or seven years ago, but she said conditions are no better today.<\/p>\n
\u201cNothing\u2019s changed,\u201d she said. \u201cWhen I hear the COVID stories and I read the reports, I was shocked. I was shocked that nothing has changed in all these years.\u201d<\/p>\n
Lambier was among approximately 25 people at a Chatham-Kent Health Coalition protest Wednesday outside the Chatham office of Chatham-Kent\u2013\u2013Leamington MPP Rick Nicholls.<\/p>\n
They were upset with not only Bill 175 \u2013 the Ontario government\u2019s new home and community care act \u2013 but also the general condition of the province\u2019s long-term care facilities.<\/p>\n
Coalition chairperson Shirley Roebuck criticized Premier Doug Ford\u2019s \u201ctotal lack of response to the ongoing staffing crisis in long-term care.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cThere have been multiple reports that advocacy groups, such as the Ontario Health Coalition, have published about what\u2019s happening in long-term care: the lack of adequate staffing, the lack of good full-time jobs, etc. They\u2019ve done nothing about it,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt took a report from the military, which was a scathing report about the substandard care given to our elderly in numerous nursing homes, which by the way are for-profit private homes.\u201d<\/p>\n
There have been 1,683 deaths from COVID-19 in Ontario\u2019s long-term care homes, or 64 per cent of the province\u2019s total.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhy in the name of God would the government really try to push this legislation through when we are in the middle of the COVID-19 pandemic?\u201d Roebuck said in an interview. \u201cDon\u2019t they have enough that they can do?\u201d<\/p>\n
Nicholls was at Queen\u2019s Park, but he issued a statement defending Bill 175, The Connecting People to Home and Community Care Act.<\/p>\n
The legislation is intended to update home-care services, reduce bureaucratic barriers to receiving care, and give service providers more power, he said.<\/p>\n
\u201cDespite what the Ontario Health Coalition is saying, the government and the Premier\u2019s Council on Improving Healthcare and Ending Hallway Medicine have consulted with patients, caregivers, providers, workers, health system and academic experts,\u201d Nicholls said.<\/p>\n
He added: \u201cWe are giving Ontario Health Teams, in partnership with home and community care service providers, the flexibility to develop innovative, integrated delivery models, including care co-ordination. Community services would continue to be directly provided by non-profit organizations in almost all cases.\u201d<\/p>\n
The Ontario Health Teams will take over the home and community care handled by Local Health Integrated Networks.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat that means is no public oversight,\u201d Roebuck said. \u201cAs bad as the LHIN system was, at least it was public.\u201d<\/p>\n
The legislation will also make it harder for people upset with their home care to make complaints, she said.<\/p>\n
\u201cPeople have a right to know what\u2019s happening,\u201d Roebuck said, \u201cand what\u2019s happening is the wholesale privatization of home care, community care, opening up of private hospitals, access to hospital services by private operators. It\u2019s bad legislation.\u201d<\/p>\n
Nicholls said the government has no plans to privatize home care.<\/p>\n
\u201cBill 175 is proposing to maintain that health-service providers or Ontario Health Teams that provide home and community care services must be not-for-profit,\u201d he said. \u201cOntarians can continue to rely on our publicly funded health care system and publicly funded home care.\u201d<\/p>\n
