AGP Executive Report

Last update: 7 hours ago

Homecare Oversight: Gov. Maura Healey signed a Massachusetts law creating the state’s first statewide licensing system for homecare agencies, with new standards and enforcement powers aimed at protecting older adults, people with disabilities, and the workers who support them. Food Insecurity Pressure: Anti-hunger advocate Liz Wills-O’Gilvie is fasting for 15 days to urge Healey to boost funding for Massachusetts’ shrinking SNAP program as enrollment drops and families struggle with rising grocery costs. Postpartum Mental Health: Coverage tied to the Lindsay Clancy trial spotlights postpartum psychosis as a psychiatric emergency that can be mistaken for depression or OCD—raising calls for faster recognition and better care. Abortion Access Debate: Healey signed legislation removing Massachusetts’ late-term abortion limit, allowing abortions at any point based on physician judgment—prompting backlash from some Democrats and religious leaders. Public Health Research: Boston Children’s Hospital researchers report COVID-19 can reactivate dormant viruses in hospitalized patients, offering new clues for preventing long-lasting complications. Care Costs Rising: A separate report highlights how long-term care costs keep climbing, worsening financial strain for families across ages.
