Clarifications - Published Tuesday November 24th, 2009

In a story on Page A6 of yesterday's Times & Transcript regarding the annual meeting in Moncton of the Coalition for Seniors and Nursing Home Residents' Rights, the situation concerning nursing home fees addressed by speaker Elizabeth Martin no longer exists.

Since 2006, seniors' assets have not been calculated into nursing home fees. Seniors' assets are now protected and are no longer considered during the long-term care assessment for nursing home services.
The Times & Transcript apologizes for any confusion this error may have caused.
