Fishermen's ER And Roseway Desk Closures Sign of Healthcare Dilemma: PC Leader


We told you a day or two ago about the pending overnight closure of the front desk and switchboard at Roseway Hospital in Shelburne.  There are fears this will only lead to even more shutdowns in health services in the area.  Now, the province's PC leader is weighing-in on the move.  Jamie Baillie says he too is worried about whats going on.  He says its a symptom of a health care system meltdown.



Baillie says there are way too many health authorities and their high-paid executives that are draining the system of money and resources.  He proposes cutting back on the number of authorities and administrators and increasing health services.
