Make Nursing Homes Less Accountable


I haven’t looked at details yet, but my first instinct is to oppose this.

I don’t have any kind of plan in mind, unfortunately, to bring Tennessee nursing homes up to a reasonable standard for resident’s comfort, well-being, and medical needs. But, I don’t think the answer is to take away what shreds of responsibility they have under the jurisdiction of the civil courts.

I don’t have any kind of plan in mind, unfortunately, to bring Unitarian Churches up to a reasonable standard for congregant’s comfort, well-being, and spiritual religious needs. But, I don’t think the answer is to go after the atheist market to the detriment of the much larger religious market of God believing Americans.

Robin - yes the UU is quite a niche player. Those God believing Americans, and those whose vision of God is exclusive or demands the attention or devotion of all co-religionists have plenty of churches at their disposal. Those who don’t embrace the God concept, or who worship God as they see fit and leave others to do the same, thankfully, have a home in the UU niche. I’d like to see that niche expand, but even if it is a small one, I’m glad it’s there.
