Report finds failures at Connecticut nursing homes as strikes loom
Dave Collins
The report also accuses nursing home owners of failing to follow federal guidance on the use of protective equipment and having inadequate infection control, testing and quarantine procedures during the pandemic. It alleges state officials haven t done enough to oversee nursing homes and hold them accountable.
The report, titled We Were Abandoned: How Connecticut Failed Nursing Home Workers and Residents During The COVID-19 Pandemic, was written by Yale Law School students for the Service Employees International Union s District 1199 New England, which represents about 5,000 nursing home workers in Connecticut. Students in Yale s Worker and Immigrant Rights Advocacy Clinic surveyed employees and reviewed state regulatory documents for the report.

CONNECTICUT One Connecticut lawmaker is among more than 100 across the country now accused of sexual misconduct in the four years since the onset of the national #MeToo reckoning in 2017, according to data collected by The Associated Press.
The state lawmakers are among other politicians, entertainers and business leaders exposed in the social justice movement to end sexual abuse and sexual harassment. The movement began in 2017 when movie mogul Harvey Weinstein, now a convicted sex offender, was accused by more than 80 women of sexual misconduct allegations dating back to the late 1970s.
