In her 23 years as a nurse at the Concord Care Center in Garner, Bonnie Butin never imagined she would go through something like caring for people during a global pandemic.
âIt was a learning experience,â she said. âIt was very busy and you needed to be especially attentive to the residents.â
Concord residents who tested positive for COVID-19 had to be in a different part of the building than everyone else to prevent the spread of the virus.
âIt was a scary time,â Butin said. âYou just had to reassure them and hope for the best.â

More than a year into the novel coronavirus pandemic, we aren t certain how many Ohio nursing home workers died of COVID-19.
COVID-19 made working in a nursing home one of the deadliest jobs in America, according to an analysis of federal data by Scientific American magazine. Nursing home staffers had a higher death rate in 2020 than logging workers did in 2019, Scientific American found. The only group that had a higher death rate in 2019 were fishers.
“It just leaves me speechless,” said Meghan Finegan, assistant communications director for Service Employees International Union, which represents around two million employees across multiple industries, including nursing homes.
