We’ve learned during #COVID19 that nursing homes are the worst places to be. But #NYS wants force seniors & disabled people into nursing homes with restrictions to home care eligibility. We need to #RestoreHomeCareAccess now! #HomeCare4All #SupportA6346 #SupportS328
Disabled? Aging? Need help with laundry, changing bed sheets, or cleaning? No home care for you in #NYS! We need to roll back Medicaid home care eligibility restrictions and #RestoreHomeCareAccess! #HomeCare4All #SupportA6346 #SupportS328
It shouldn’t be easier to get care in a nursing home than in your own home. Gov. Hochul needs to repeal the restrictions to Medicaid home care eligibility and #RestoreHomeCareAccess! #HomeCare4All #SupportA6346 #SupportS328
The #COVID19 delay has been lifted as of Saturday: If #BillS329 does not get passed, the highly restrictive #Homecare #Eligibility #Requirements will go into effect. This is still a #PublicHealthEmergency.
Why can’t we wait to #RestoreHomecare4All? The time is now to reduce the 70% unemployment rate for people with disabilities. We need home care to work, play, and be members of our communities. Rolling back rights in 2023 isn’t acceptable! #SupportS328 #SupportA6346

Restricting homecare eligibility just doesn't make sense. MRTII cuts are supposed to save $, but with no home care, people will be forced into nursing homes - 30-65% more expensive. We need to #RestoreHomecare4All.
If we don’t #RestoreHomecare4All people needing help w/ cleaning, grocery shopping, laundry, mail sorting, etc. won’t be deemed disabled enough by NY to need services. Older and disabled NYers deserve better! #SupportS328 #SupportA6346

More ER visits. More nursing home beds. More caregivers dropping out of the workforce to provide unpaid care for loved ones. That's the reality if the MRTII cuts go through. #SupportS328 and #SupportA6346 to #RestoreHomecare4All.
#RestoreHomecare4All = people with disabilities having the long term services & support to thrive! Homecare is 30-65% cheaper than institutional care. The “$277M saved” will be money spent on nursing home care. #SupportA6346 #SupportS328
