A Statement from Home Care Association of New York State (HCA) President and CEO Al Cardillo
“I echo Attorney General Letitia James’s sentiments regarding the tireless, vital work of home health aides in caring for the most vulnerable New Yorkers. Not knowing all circumstances of this case, HCA is not able speak on those specifics. However, there is no place in New York’s home care system — or in the broader health care system — for any organization to deliberately engage in unlawful practices described in the AG’s press release, or to exploit an individual’s immigration status as has been charged. HCA supports the efforts of law enforcement in breaches of these laws in home care as in any sector.”
