Okay.
Yeah, I'm glad you asked that because that was, to some degree still is, a huge area of concern.
My perception, I don't have any data on this, my perception has been that the home and community-based services sector
As I think a lower percentage of immigrant workers doing the direct care than in hospitals and nursing homes.
That's just been my perception.
But I know that the providers were very anxious because of this and their concern.
I know that there were some providers who were making sure that their staff had, you know, they were taking them to and from work.
from home to work and back and forth so that they weren't being out and visible.
I know some of the care workers were extremely concerned about being seen out in the community with people they support, because what if somebody came and took them away and left the person with nobody to care for them out in a community setting somewhere?
So there was a lot of anxiety over things like that.
I haven't heard any specific reports of things that actually occurred, but as you would expect, I think it did affect people not coming into work, so not showing up for shifts.
And so that just puts a further strain on the workforce.
And so it was a huge issue.

because the people that are being supported are so vulnerable and rely so much on the staff, those kinds of disruptions can be catastrophic.
Yeah.
