State Regulators Slam San Francisco Over Laguna Honda
Supporters of San Francisco’s Prop D rallied on the steps of City Hall yesterday to highlight a recently released state report revealing widespread acts of violence against patients at Laguna Honda. The situation at Laguna Honda is so bad that the state is fining SF daily, and suspending new medical payments to the facility. But Health Director Mitch Katz showed up at the rally and claimed Prop D backers are misrepresenting the state report. Katz argued that Laguna Honda remains the best skilled nursing home in San Francisco and is among the finest in the nation. Rarely have two sides to a local political debate differed so much over the facts, and the passions on each side are intensifying.
