SHA finalizes $13.1 million deal with Saskatchewan Extendicare homes
Barbara Cape, president of Service Employees International Union West, explains the transition period that Extendicare staff are currently experiencing.“The transition happened behind some very tightly closed doors.” Cape confirmed that many staff members have outstanding questions that make it harder to focus on their work. These questions have been communicated to the SHA.When asked if the transition to SHA employment was smooth, Cape could not provide a definitive answer.
“The reason why I am not sure is because the absolute lack of real information to the staff or to the unions who work in the facilities. It has been alarming.” Cape explains that Extendicare’s staffing has not always been able to keep up and something they would like to see from the SHA is more robust staffing initiatives.
“The relationship between a caregiver in long-term care and a resident is really one of family as well. Residents and their family want to make sure that there is no stress, no anxiety, no outstanding questions and they can just focus on putting their professionalism to the test every single day.”When asked about future plans for change and improvement, the SHA responded, “Residents and families should see no change to the delivery of their care.
“We are committed to ensuring ongoing high-quality, safe resident care and services for all residents at the five homes, as well as an environment where loved ones feel welcomed and part of the care team. Our goal was to make this transition as seamless as possible for all residents, families and staff.”
