The Northern Ontario representative of the OMA make suggestions at the provincial pre-budget consultation hearings for quick improvements for healthcare services in the North.
Northern Ontario representatives of the Ontario Medical Association presented a plan with steps they say could provide immediate relief to the doctor shortage in the North at the latest provincial pre-budget consultation hearings.
“The new program, coupled with a mentorship program designed to keep physicians in the north, could be implemented immediately [and] would potentially be a game-changer in building a lasting supply of doctors in rural northern communities.” The final recommendation made at the hearing was to acquire diagnostic equipment, which would allow some services to be provided directly in long-term care homes in order to relieve pressure on the hospital system.
