A personal support worker who worked at an Extendicare long-term-care home says she was let go from her job after she raised concerns about the quality of care her patients received. Scheuneman worked at Extendicare Peterborough for more than 25 years. The Star spoke with a current Extendicare Peterborough employee, as well as a former one, who worked alongside Scheuneman and both agreed that this was the case. The Extendicare spokesperson said that the home “had a full staffing complement” through Scheuneman’s employment. The current employee said that Extendicare management does not listen to concerns from staff about the quality of care.
