@realnickkupper Agree. Expecting families should also be informed that the Down Syndrome Adoption Network has a wait list 7+ yrs long of parents waiting for the opportunity to raise the child that was recently terminated.
@realnickkupper Agree. We also need legislation that supports medical providers giving families factual information about their child’s diagnosis. Down syndrome diagnosis network has worked hard to eliminate provider bias.
@realnickkupper Agree. They also deserve healthcare and supports to maintain their quality of life and health. We need prolife Republicans to step up and stop Medicaid cuts affecting this population.
@realnickkupper Agree. they also deserve access to their school environment. The new LESD school opening in the fall will have playgrounds inaccessible to wheelchair users. teachers expected to lift children to play, bond $ spent on aesthetics and not function. Unsafe for all.
@votewarren GOP created a fake story, it didn’t go anywhere and now you are changing your tune. Nothing happened and nothing changed. Quit playing games with constituents and be honest
@AZAGMayes PHX valley SNFs associated with the companies in this article are seeing highest staffing ratios. If it takes 2-3 hrs to get help, it is because those CNAs are caring for 12 other people
@calleymeans Limit drinks to: water, milk, coffee. No alcohol, soda or juice. Ham is on sale 0.89/lb around the holidays, same for whole turkey. stock up when it’s cheap and freeze it. get to your Kroger store around 8am to get the reduced price meat and freeze. whole fruits and veggies.
@realnickkupper What is your take on seniors having to retake the Az road test periodically after age 70? in healthcare we see patients whose vision, sensation in their feet and cognition is on the decline but we all wait for their children to take the car keys or for something bad to happen
@KurtSupeCPA Long term care coverage tends to be surprisingly limited when people need it and rarely covers more than 8 hrs per day of caregivers in home
@KurtSupeCPA In home caregivers cost >$35/hour. assisted living can be >$10,000/month. my grandfather blew through over a million dollars just on caregiver support in home in just a few years. people do not understand how expensive disability is. Modern medicine keeps you alive forever
@realnickkupper Housing costs, student loan/tuition crisis and healthcare costs are huge factors. three children in daycare would cost $3k per month. It’s all too much.
@gbintc@RepHaleyStevens The author of the Tylenol study was paid $150k and his conclusions were thrown out by a judge in court. He drafted the study again and that is what is being cited by this administration
@MayorofBuckeye Would love to see assisted living and memory care units in Buckeye especially with the hospitals coming to verrado way. Our aging parents need support and would love to stay local while receiving it. Buckeye is their home
@azwomenofaction@realnickkupper If I am understanding this correctly, no one in Az can access these sites at all? if so well done @realnickkupper! This is the best possible outcome for protecting kids
@katiehobbs I urge you to please have ahcccs pause the 10/1 policy rollout and review them. The public comment period from may did not reflect final draft at all. We ask for a new public comment period to get our voices heard. These new policies are harmful.

@MichaelCarbone Nope not this time @MichaelCarbone DDD families in LD25 will not forgive the hell you helped cause. We have rallied and informed our community. See ya! ✌🏻
@abundantlyniche@MichaelCarbone And he voted to severely limit life sustaining healthcare services for developmentally disabled children in AZ. Imagine pretending to be pro life and then yanking services from the profoundly disabled, leaving thousands of families in a chaotic mess. https://t.co/kxtp70TtDc
@AZNotoriousJPG@AzCapitolTimes@TheYellowSheet Interesting that they want to make it a crime to terminate for a genetic defect but @SteveMontenegro wanted to cut ddd services for children like mine who are disabled due to a genetic defect. force the birth then yank the supports families and children need to survive.
