“As we continue to come out of this pandemic, we have a once-in-a-generation opportunity to not just get back to normal, but truly transform our county.”
The National Guard will be deployed to fill staffing shortages at Willow Point Nursing and Rehabilitation Center in Vestal.
Staffing shortages at Broome County’s Willow Point Nursing Home have forced officials to declare a state of emergency.
Broome County Executive Jason Garnar said the facility will bring a couple hundred jobs to the area.
With all election districts reporting, Garner leads with 61 percent of the vote en route to his second term.
Democratic County Executive Jason Garnar and Republican challenger Karl Bernhardsen met in an online forum hosted by the Rotary Club of Binghamton.
“In coordination with this new cluster initiative, I am going to continue to ask people to stay home for these 14 days as well,” Garnar said.
54 new active cases were added to the county’s COVID-19 dashboard between Wednesday and Thursday, with 8 people currently hospitalized.
“We have waited long enough for the federal government to act, and we are going to come up with our own plan.”
“It is really, really going to hurt this community if we don’t get some type of assistance.”
The Department of Social Services will soon start monitoring open day care spots in Broome County.
