Whats happening with the Operation Room and Hospital - Jan 12, 2004

  • We have information from a good source that the IHA are planning to restrict the Fernie Hospital to day surgeries in the O.R. This is a extreme betrayal of trust by IHA as they suggested in false statements that there would be no cutbacks to the O.R. "suggested by Murey Ramsay", obviously this man has no integrality and has again I say betrayed the trust of the people of Fernie. This has a extreme reflection on our gatekeeper, Bill Bennett who has either be misinformed or has complete knowledge of this strategy.

  • What can you to do to counteract this?
    We must hold our current government to task at the next election and demand the termination of the top executives in IHA (without a golden handshake, in other words fire them) for this betrayal of trust.

  • Information was provided by a local physician at our Jan 14th meeting, 7pm Fernie Family Center.
