State plans boost for health care and new prisons
Thompson reports a lion pilot program aiding disabled with job skills post special education. Nursing homes serving welfare recipients would gain 6.1 percent cost of living increases and potential 4 percent funding boosts for quality care. A $20 million quality incentive program and $3 million for stricter nursing home enforcement are planned. Health workers would see 5 percent reimbursements rises, plus $3 million for organ transplants once deemed experimental. A new 900-bed prison at Danville and continued work at Galesburg prisons are planned, with tactical response teams to assist local police during riots or disturbances.
