Healthcare Thread🧵: Plan To Stay Open: Bill 7 - More Beds,Better Care Act
Every time I try to convince myself that the @fordnation government can’t get any worse, they dive even deeper. The lack of compassion for Ontarians shines through every piece of legislation /2

they write, and with every word they speak. To hear @PaulCalandra and @SylviaJonesMPP at their presser this week was bad enough, but to read the true message in words defies logic and further demonstrates their love of privatization and their disdain for Ontarians. /3
Let’s go on a trip through the written words. 😡 I’ve highlighted a few problematic things.

Hospital partners, AKA hospital CEOs.
Independent health facilities that use more of your tax dollars.
Existing private clinics which drain healthcare workers from the public system. /5

Stabilize our health system? 🤦🏼♀️
Seventh wave has peaked and will recede?
Periodic staff shortages? /6

Improve vaccine uptake? 😂
Still waiting for Dr. Moore to stop telling people to wait for their booster.
What about child vaccinations? /7

Dr. Moore, CMOH, advises #LTC homes to shut down Covid isolation rooms. How many #LTC homes are in outbreak right now? /8
Patients won’t be out of pocket for any cost difference?
Gotta look after those for-profit margins, I guess. /9

Again with the existing private clinics. Instead of fixing the public system, we’ll pay more so you can use private clinics. We like to pad the pockets of our donors using your tax dollars. /10
Easing pressure by increasing physician coverage. From what I’m hearing, the shortage is nursing staff. Some hospitals paid doctor wages to doctors to act as nurses, which is an exorbitant rate. /11 in
Transition patients to other facilities. Didn’t that result in extra fees to the patient?
Fully leverage nursing ability to work several locations to get get full time hours. They’re still classified as part time employees, so no benefits. /12

These workers need people to mentor them. Existing staff already can’t keep up, so they don’t have time. With the disrespect being shown by not repealing Bill 124, very few of those who left will return to do that mentoring. /13
It’s more than simply covering applicable fees. It’s this little thing called RESPECT, which is why so many left in the first place. /14
A recognition of the additional cost of using agency nurses. 👏🏼 Too bad, they aren’t listening to the Opposition and @CathrynOna. The solutions are pretty obvious. 🤦🏼♀️ /15
This Bill 7 is absolutely reprehensible.🤬
“This new provision authorizes certain actions to be carried out without the consent of these patients.” /17
“This new provision authorizes certain actions to be carried out without the consent of these patients.” /17
All of these can happen without consent despite what @PaulCalandra states to the media.
An absolutely horrific bill that will be passed simply because they want it to be passed.
Ontario no longer has a voice. 😢🤬😢
