Some 300 people who currently need subsidised beds in nursing homes must expect a wait of up to four months.
Meanwhile, some 300 such beds are vacant.
The 300 on the wait list require step-down care and cannot afford non-
subsidised beds in nursing homes. They include those recovering from illness and those without caregivers. Read the full report in The Sunday Times.
