Thanks so much for being there @LeAnnaJCarey. Enjoyed "seeing" so many of the FOX team today. Looking forward to sharing a prosperous & exciting 2021 with everyone!

It's December & a good time to re-examine your healthcare #complianceprogram. Get prepared for 2021! https://t.co/1jqJ5C12BC

#Ageism has no place in our world. Different countries & even different states here in the U.S. have differing attitudes towards #aging & older adults. https://t.co/cdZlW5TcAy

This one is definitely a head scratcher-talk about shooting yourself in the foot! Thx to @JimBerklan for giving us the heads up! #eldercare #nursinghomes https://t.co/1jL2ngvEWJ

Neither am I! RT @JimBerklan: Or as Hamilton puts it "I'm not throwing away my shot!" ?? 😀 Well put @LizaBerger19 @Harmonyhlthcare @ctffox @AmyS_AADNS https://t.co/LXcWks1YE7

As we move closer to vaccine distribution, it will be up to each individual in long-term care to take the shot: https://t.co/zHdhVxWJUV

The #nursinghome industry faces many challenges. And, there's no one size fits all. But, in the end, we all want the patients to benefit. https://t.co/dPMSn7fsgL

I share some of Jim's optimism but more importantly, his realism. A good read-RT @JimBerklan: It's a perfect time to reshape long-term care systems in the U.S. Here's a toast to getting it done. https://t.co/78B4ULdSti

Hey @birddogs - sent u guys three emails w/no response. Trying to get an update on my 7/23 order. What gives?

[Craig Fukushima @ctffox]

Providers have enough to deal with, they don't need to battle timely testing too. RT @JimBerklan: Great perspective here, as told by @LizaBerger19 . Testing's still a very tough subject for providers. @LindaElizaitis @ctffox @Harmonyhlthcare https://t.co/1tIc64XRgD

Lab tests for #COVID19 ‘nearly useless’ again due to slow turnaround times: Genesis CMO https://t.co/OVpADr8Cy0

[Craig Fukushima @ctffox]

Better late than never as they say...RT @JimBerklan: Nice to see CMS taking the lead on something like this. Other aspects of COVID-19 response deserve the same. @Harmonyhlthcare https://t.co/pLvRR2iYGy

This is one of the many untold stories that has been going on in senior care facilities everywhere. These stories need to be heard. #nursinghomes #eldercare https://t.co/z1svAC3FSz

Here's a list of federal resources for #covid for older adults & #caregivers https://t.co/ZdEJnHxMJN

[Craig Fukushima @ctffox]

An increase in #ageism is an unfortunate byproduct of this pandemic. The characterization of older adults as frail & lacking usefulness is misinformed & just plain wrong. #aging https://t.co/RJJmbJSI7m

[Craig Fukushima @ctffox]

Thanks Jim. And thx for reminding us that LTC faces all the challenges (& more) that other healthcare providers do in this day of COVID-19. RT @JimBerklan: @ctffox put it so well, as usual. One of Jean's best, I'd say. https://t.co/63wa1l8j3b
