Kaboom: NYT lowers the boom on for-profit nursing homes

September 24, 2007 | Dr. Bill Thomas

Sunday’s NYT pulls back the curtain on the practice of “flipping” nursing homes for profit. There is money to be made and some people are making lots of money. No problem there, this America after all and making a buck is an honored tradition. No, the problem is that there are real problems with safety, […]

And the Winner Is…

September 22, 2007 | Dr. Bill Thomas

This arrived in my inbox and it was a nice reminder of all the great work being done by skilled and committed people in the field of long term care. “Just to let you all know… LaVonda Cathcart from Holly, CO won last night. Her home was either first or second (I think) to become […]

Right now, wise and profound minds tell […]

A gathering of the tribe, Eden Educators come together for their semi-annual meeting. These are some of the best teachers in America and I love them and their iron-clad commitment to positive social change. We had a great evening together.

September 19, 2007 | Dr. Bill Thomas

Here is a great use of the vast “electronic commons” and a boon to elderhood besides… “Everyone loves a good story.
