HISTORY of ESSENTIAL CARE VISITOR

Our Essential Care Visitors were locked out of nursing homes

We have lived grieving our loved ones - those we lost and those who survived....this pain of separation from essential care has no words...

One September 17, 2020 Center for Medicare and Medicaid states we can get in now....under compassionate care guidelines - if you are non-verbal, depressed, losing weight...yet Facilities would not follow this....

The Essential Caregiver Bills are on the New York State Legislature Floor.  The Senate Version and Assembly Version.  Many National Advocacy groups are illuminating deaths now from the prolonged isolation of our vulnerable.  Compassionate Care Visitation is being practiced at each Facility's discretion.  Families are Uniting to make change and reform.  

We continue to advocate for those who are separated now for nearly ONE YEAR, as family members cry to have access it's too late...the march of an E.O. for Visitation is slow to yield a passing in New York State Legislature, dispute over Covid-19 death numbers paralyze stakeholders ...all of this leads us to...

We will gather again to give voice to our vulnerable on the ONE YEAR Anniversary of our separation...
