Mass Deportations Not Without Consequences
William Hopkins
Attorney
Shackelford, Bowen, McKinley & Norton, LLP, Austin
The increasing anti-immigrant stance shared by several current political candidates might be touching a nerve with some, but the sudden removal of a large number of immigrants from the workforce could have a profound impact on such occupational areas as home health care. Says Hopkins: "Most licensed professionals, including nurses and physicians, must establish their ability to work in the United States and participate in the state regulatory process in order to have a license. So they are not likely to be affected by anti-immigration or deportation policies. However, many unlicensed personnel who work as home health aides, personal aides and medication aides potentially could be caught up in so-called 'immigration sweeps.' Without these workers, a lot of companies would encounter a shortage of low-cost employees and could face significant challenges in finding suitable replacements."
Hopkins advises both individual health care providers and institutional health care clients on matters involving administrative law, regulatory defense and litigation.
