EDMONTON – The Canadian Union of Public Employees (CUPE) will release a survey of almost 600 employees of Alberta seniors’ and long-term care facilities next Monday.
The survey will paint a bleak picture of the state of seniors’ care in the province, and the continuing effect of staff shortages on resident care, caused by under funding of seniors’ programs.
Date: Monday, October 23rd 2006
Time: 10:30 am
Place: Holiday Inn Express
10010 – 104 St, Edmonton
