Since then, I've heard so many stories from folks who have been left in bad situations because of this dangerous cut: (1/6)

The stories about the horrendous conditions in Ontario’s #LongTermCare homes right now are shocking in magnitude, but unfortunately not unfamiliar to anyone who has been advocating for better long-term care in our province. (1/4)
In 2011, the #SaskParty eliminated minimum care standards in long-term care, including staffing ratios. This means that there are no rules about how many times a resident needs to be seen in a day. (2/4)
This means reduced levels of care and has left overworked, underpaid care workers struggling to deliver care to residents.

So many of us have stories of a loved one struggling to navigate the long-term care system. (3/4)
