Heather TerHark, vice president of ancillary services at long-term care chain Vivage, said all of Parkmoor’s residents were transferred to other homes in late July, and most employees already have found new jobs. Vivage manages 30 long-term care facilities in Colorado, in addition to Parkmoor.
Parkmoor had been cited for insufficient care during inspections in March and May, but follow-up visits showed the problems had been corrected. In the inspection documents, employees noted they were short-staffed and relying on temporary workers, who didn’t always know what residents needed.
Imagine taking thousands from the elderly every month while paying workers minimum wages and then pretending it’s Medicaid’s fault (guaranteed payments) that you won’t stay open.
GovofCO but hey the pools in Colorado are open.
