The two wom- en, Mrs: Mary Snclgrovc and Mrs. Eva Symons, and thc O.N.H.A. be- lieve that thc current government funding model for seniors in nurs- ing homes is discriminatory and vi- olates their constitutional rights un- der thc Charter of Rights and Freedoms. Many of the public, and even members of families who have rela- tives residing at Exeter Villa Nurs- ing Home, are not aware of where 'actually this discriminatory prob- lem lies. Currently, nursing homes are funded by the Ontario Ministry of Health at only 558.00 per resident per day. Municipal homes, on the other hand, receive an, average of S87.00 per • person per day. -That means that nursing home residents receive $29.00 a day Tess than if they resided in municipal homes for the aged. Funding for municipal homes for the aged originates from the Ministry of Community and Social Services as well as thc mu- nicipality which it is situated with- in. As well, nursing homes pay full municipal taxes while municipal • homes for the agcd do not. The -O.N.H.A. is seeking additional funding that would only be used to improve the quality of care that res- idents receive in nursing homes such as increased professional staff. More • R.N. and R.N.A.'s who un- derstand our residents' complex and changing health care status and re- quirements are needed to provide regular resident health' care assess- ments, to implement and evaluate resident care plans and to supervise non-professional staff. Activity programs to improve residents' quality, of life by fulfill- ing their social, physical, cogni- tive, spiritual'and emotional needs require additional staffing. Special services which should be accessible to nursing home residents but pres- ently arc not, simply because of in- adequate funding _ such as social workers, spiritual care, physiothera- py, occupational therapy and dental programs, must be addressed. Extended Carc residents in both facilities require the same care, have the same needs and therefore deserve equal funding to provide the care required. This double standard of care and funding has simply evolved over • the years. It is time we reminded the government that seniors with equal needs nre entitled to equal funding. I invitefamilies and others con- cerned with this issue to write our local M.P.P. and the Minister of Health, Elinor Caplan, to express your concerns regarding this issue. Please contact inc for any addi- tional information. Sincerely, - Kathy A. O'Reilly R.N.
