County run nursing homes well run should be non issues. What does the the Director of Human Services report?

Is he communicating with our County leaders? Have they asked for his suggestions?

Nursing homes are no longer a core function of county government, but here's a suggestion for Senator Miller: Each year State Reps and Senators get automatic salary COLAs. How about also indexing the state Medicaid reimbursement rate to inflation?
