Hospitals across Canada are continuing to close their doors temporarily for a variety of reasons.
Hospital work has become increasingly stressful, so staffing burnout is widespread.Isolation rules rated to COVID-19 are excessive, keeping too many people at home who should be at work.Article contentHospital executives, who are paid handsomely, are failing to rise to the occasion and manage their facilities.
Some family doctors still aren’t seeing patients in person, sending people to hospital who shouldn’t actually head there. The list goes on. But here’s the thing: the answer is for those responsible for managing our healthcare to solve these problems. No more excuses. No more blame game. To simply shrug and say the problems are complex isn’t sufficient. If a politician or a hospital executive can’t handle the complexity of the issue then they need to step aside and let someone else take a shot at it.
Nobody said it would be easy. Yet these are the people who claim to be the experts and have the jobs to grapple with tough issues. So do it already.Canadians pay a lot of tax dollars for our public health care system. Right now it’s broken and failing to fulfill its most rudimentary function – to see that the facilities open their doors and serve patients.
