During the webinar, you’ll hear from a powerful slate of guest speakers,
including Zenei Triunfo-Cortez, RN, NNU President; Nancy Folbre, Professor
Emerita of Economics and Director of the Program on Gender and Care Work
at the Political Economy Research Institute at the University of
Massachusetts Amherst; and Raj Patel, Research Professor at the Lyndon B.
Johnson School of Public Affairs at the University of Texas, Austin.
We’ll discuss how Home All Alone threatens patient care, jeopardizes RN
working conditions, exploits gender inequities, and contributes to the
broader devaluation of care work. The webinar will also show how the Home
All Alone program stands in stark contrast to Medicare For All’s promise
to cover long-term care, alleviate the need for unpaid family caregiving,
and allow for the establishment of uniform national standards of care,
including mandating nurse-to-patient ratios.
[ [link removed] ]To put it simply, Home All Alone programs increase profits at the
expense of caregivers and quality patient
care. Join
us tomorrow night to learn more — this is your last chance to RSVP!
Thank you,
