White Paper Issued in Wisconsin, Stirs
Public Debate
George Potaracke, WI SLTCO
On July 7, 2003, George Potaracke, State Ombudsman and
Executive Director of the Wisconsin Board on Aging and Long Term Care, issued a
public policy discussion paper on nursing homes that explores the unique
interests and responsibilities of the three major players in long term care -
consumers, the nursing home industry, and state government. Titled "Nursing
Homes and Public Policy", the white paper has promoted much public debate.
Recommendations include "empower consumers to act as self-advocates"
and "Re-focus nursing home care toward rehabilitation and sub acute
care...."
