Shame.
Port Townsend, Washington: 11 residents of the Victoria House assisted living facility face eviction due to a change of policy: the corporation managing the facility suddenly decided to stop accepting Medicaid. Outraged? Join our action group.

Victoria House Eviction
From the Port Townsend Leader:
Eleven residents of the assisted-living facility were told individually [...] Thursday [November 1st] that they need to move by Jan. 31 because Assisted Living Concepts, a Wisconsin-based national public company traded on the New York Stock Exchange, is no longer accepting state Medicaid at the Port Townsend facility.
Laurie Bebo, CEO and President of Assisted Living Concepts (ALC) which runs the place, seems to think that that's just a fine business practice. A large chunk of the rest of the human race pretty much disagrees.

wayne appeared late last night at his office. was he avoiding being available for questions during the day?
Is Wayne just carrying out orders, or does he actually approve of the evictions?
What is his family name, his function, and what is his contact information? Perhaps he should be approached for a comment?
Wayne's name is Wayne Pattison and he is the Administrator at Victoria House. Wayne was back on the job today and we hear he has been quite ill (hope he's not still contageous). The telephone number at Victoria House is 379-8223.
My personal opinion is that Wayne is not thrilled about the evictions. He will probably be happier to see some residents go than others. His relationship with Kay Harper has definately had it's ups and downs.
