Marie public health advocate.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The province\u2019s stand that the legislation will free up badly needed acute-care beds in hospitals rings hollow and unfairly hurts seniors and their families, says Marie DellaVedova, Ontario Health Coalition\u2019s Sault representative.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cIs the onus on elderly, frail people to do that? Why are we looking at voiceless people to solve a problem?\u201d DellaVedova said during an interview Tuesday with the Sault Star.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cWhy are we causing them more hardship and doing that to family members? That doesn\u2019t seem to me as though we\u2019ve looked very hard or very far to find a solution.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cWe wouldn\u2019t treat any other group, I don\u2019t think, in society this way. But these are vulnerable people. Most don\u2019t have a voice. So, it seems to me we\u2019re taking advantage of their vulnerability to do this.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The legislation would allow hospital patients to be transferred to a temporary long-term care home without their consent while they await a bed in their preferred facility.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The province says there are about 6,000 patients in hospital who require an \u201calternate level of care\u201d and should be discharged from hospital. Among those patients, 2,000 are on a waiting list for long-term care homes, the province said.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.saultstar.com\/health\/ontario-passes-motion-to-skip-public-hearings-on-long-term-care-legislation-3\/wcm\/9bd626df-38d6-4fd8-a05c-7c095d71cbf7\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Progressive Conservative government passed a motion Monday<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> to advance the bill without having it considered by committee or be subject to public hearings. The Opposition NDP sought to stop the government from skipping the public hearing process, but that motion failed.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Efforts to free up what are long-term care beds intended for patients with chronic conditions will not solve hospital \u201cproblems,\u201d said DellaVedova, adding more access to emergency and intensive care is what\u2019s immediately needed, requiring more staff, \u201cspecialized health-care people to treat patients who are in need of that kind of care.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cWhy aren\u2019t we making sure that we hire more nurses and keep the ones we have?\u201d DellaVedova said. \u201cWe need to recognize the value of our front-line health-care workers. We need to show them that we care about them. We need to pay them more. We need to resolve their problems with working conditions so that we retain the staff we have, and entice new people into these positions.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Hospitals across the province have shuttered emergency departments for hours or days at a time due to a severe nursing staff shortage in recent months.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cStaffing challenges\u201d have been pegged for fluctuating volumes and wait times at Sault Area Hospital\u2019s emergency department in the past so many months, with the facility posting a message on its Facebook page more than once that due to high patient volumes and staffing shortages in the emergency department, patients who arrive there may experience longer wait times.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">SAH did not attribute staffing issues to COVID-19.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cOur staffing challenges are impacted by many factors across multiple departments and areas,\u201d the hospital said in June. \u201cAt this time, our emergency department is feeling the most impact.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cWe continue our recruitment efforts for the\u00a0ED, and all departments within the hospital to meet the needs of our community.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Condemnation for the move was swift and fierce.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Seniors are \u201cdownright angry\u201d about the bill, said Trish McAuliffe, president of that National Pensioners Federation, which represents more than one million people. She said members of the organization are also alarmed and afraid.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cBill 7 swipes directly at the core of human dignity: an older person\u2019s and their family\u2019s right to the enjoyment of life and respect,\u201d McAuliffe said.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And on Wednesday, the Ontario Health Coalition, the Advocacy Centre for the Elderly (ACE) and the Canadian Union of Public Employees, announced they are escalating their call for the Ontario Human Rights Commission to launch a formal inquiry into systemic discrimination in the provision of health care in Ontario against the elderly based on age.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A chief concern for DellaVedova is about where patients will be placed under the proposed legislative changes, be it far from home or in a community without proper supports. This rings true especially in a district the size of Algoma or region as vast as that of Northern Ontario, she added.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cI think (Sault Ste. Marie seniors) could sent to Timmins or Sudbury \u2026 We\u2019re talking about people in Toronto who could be possible be sent to Peterborough,\u201d DellaVedova said.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Distance language has not been defined in this proposed legislation, she added.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cWe don\u2019t know if there\u2019s going to be any limit on distances,\u201d DellaVedova said. \u201cThat\u2019s one thing we have to look for. Regardless, there are hardships involved as soon as you send a family member far away. It makes it difficult for family members to visit and, to me, part of a resident\u2019s care is their psychological and emotional state. They have to feel comfortable and not abandoned.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Nursing home neglect became apparent during the height of COVID when families could not visit loved ones, DellaVedova said.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201c(Residents) didn\u2019t get fed \u2026 (prior to the pandemic) many of them had family members coming in to make sure that they ate and make sure that they stayed healthy,\u201d she added. \u201cIf we do this, we\u2019re losing that contact and family members won\u2019t even know how their elderly loved ones are doing.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.saultstar.com\/news\/why-are-we-looking-at-voiceless-people-to-solve-a-problem-seniors-shafted-in-bid-to-transfer-patients-to-nursing-homes-sans-consent-sault-public-health-advocate\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Click here for original article<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>(August 30, 2022) By: Jeffery Ougler, Sault Star Skipping public hearings for legislation that would allow hospital patients awaiting Ontario long-term care to be transferred to a nursing home without their consent is \u201cunprecedented\u201d and targets society\u2019s most \u201cvulnerable,\u201d contends a Sault Ste.
