Palisades Center Mall Crash


Sadly, a crash between a bus and an ambulette has left 1 killed and 4 injured.  According to early news accounts, the ambulette, associated with Friendship Adult Day Care Center, was making a left turn from the mall into the main roadway when the crash occurred.  Left turning vehicles are generally presumed to be a cause of an accident.  Condolences to all.

Nursing Home and Fewer Options

Sales seem to be sweeping across the region.  The net result will be less choice, and quite likely declining care.  Who will get affected the most; not surprising, those with limited incomes.  Whether in Yonkers, Valhalla, or elsewhere, these sale are and will result in layoffs.  That means less care and more neglect.  Hopefully, this trend will not only stop but will be reversed.
