About 800 workers at a dozen nursing homes across Pennsylvania have voted to authorize going on strike, a move their union said was driven by a “growing crisis” involving the COVID-19 pandemic, chronic understaffing and low pay, and industry regulations in desperate need of reform.   Staff at two Beaver County nursing homes, Beaver Valley Healthcare and Rehab in South Beaver Township and Beaver Elder Care in Aliquippa, are among those authorizing the strike.  Beaver Valley workers held a rally in May to demand better staffing, wages and protections for residents. The facility is “almost unrecognizable” since the COVID-19 pandemic hit, they said, and staff is overworked and underpaid. This results in subpar care for residents, who often rely on caregivers for food, hygiene and basic quality of life.
