Nursing homes warn of cuts under Spitzer reform

ALBANY, N.Y. -- Faced with a $263,000 deficit, workers at the St. Cabrini Nursing Home in Dobbs Ferry mailed out Christmas cards last year with ornaments, seeking donations.

They say this and other fundraisers worked to protect their 420 jobs serving 304 residents in the Westchester County home, but it won't be enough to stave off what they say will be layoffs under Gov. Eliot Spitzer's health care reform.
