My father is 91 years old and lives in an assisted living facility. I want my father to have the best possible care, and I want him to be safe.
Thanks to a judge, I am glad we stopped his in home program and placed him in a facility. There, he is safe.
"An Alameda County judge blocked Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger on Tuesday from excluding convicted felons and shoplifters from providing in-home care in a program that serves 430,000 low-income elderly and disabled Californians.
Superior Court Judge David Hunter had ruled in February that Schwarzenegger's action was illegal because state law bars workers from the program for 10 years only if they have been convicted of child abuse, elder abuse or defrauding Medi-Cal or any patient.
In-home patients, who have access to their caregivers' criminal records, can otherwise employ anyone they want, the judge said."
The purpose of government is to protect its citizens--guess the judge wants to see if the elderly can fend for themselves.
Government can not be trusted, this is another example.
