The Manitoba Nurses Union caught a line in the budget that has them concerned.
$2.3 million dollars could be cut from long term care services.
Sandi Mowat, President for the union, notes the need for personal care homes is growing
“It certainly is growing because our aging population in Manitoba confirms that fact and so it is growing.”
The union wrote a letter to Minister Goertzen asking him to clarify it and haven’t received a response.
