No ! <strong>Those working to provide home care, particularly for people with disabilities. have been forgotten.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>As if the MSSS did not recognize the essential work that these women and men do! It is as if the MSSS did not realize the extreme importance and the urgency of keeping these &#8220;<strong>no less important guardian angels<\/strong>&#8221; in place with their beneficiaries.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>If our employees of the employment service check do not receive this salary increase, they will leave us to work elsewhere. There is no shortage of vacancies in the health system today!<br \/>\nexclaims Steven Laperri\u00e8re, D.G. of RAPLIQ.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>They are highly qualified and if people with disabilities lose their attendants, even if the CLSC officials and the MSSS say that they will not leave us without service, people with disabilities will have to give training again in order to be treated according to their specific needs. Said Linda Gauthier, president of the organization.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>It is exhausting and humiliating to have to explain again the gestures and manipulations necessary for the care that these attendants must lavish on us. <strong>It\u2019s an issue of dignity!<\/strong> We must keep our attendants, but to do this, they must receive a salary increase similar to that of attendants working in the hospital environment and in residence<br \/>\nreminds Madame Gauthier.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Moreover, since the very beginning of the crisis, the RAPLIQ has challenged the government of Fran\u00e7ois Legault and more particularly the MSSS.<\/p>\n<p>We were the first and the only ones to do so. This is why we support the MEMO-QC press release.<\/p>\n<p>The RAPLIQ requires that the attendants of beneficiaries of the Service Employment Check (CES) receive a salary increase equivalent to that decreed on March 26.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>We cannot wait any longer.
