THUNDER BAY – The president and CEO at Thunder Bay Regional Health Sciences Centre says she is hopeful with the information that's being shared around the government’s five-point health-care plan announced on Aug. 18. “We still need to see the devil in the detail, certainly, but it looks very promising that there's some really good things that should really help to improve flow within the system and support capacity while really supporting our health care workforce,” she said.
“It will really support ensuring that patients who are waiting for other levels of care, in particular long-term care, still have the opportunity to have choice while they would potentially see themselves waiting in a long-term care facility versus a hospital,” she said. “They're going to boost, the for-profit long-term care homes by filling their homes with patients with residents and seniors, seniors who deserve to be looked after properly. They're going to be kicked out of the hospital now to fill those homes,” he said.
