A rural and northern health care panel has been established.
The aim of the panel is to develop the best way to co-ordinate the delivery of health care services for local residents.
The panel will consist of stakeholders and health care professionals who will provide recommendations for services, programs and initiatives to offer the community.
Panel members will also identify challenges such as increased travel times for those seeking access to health care facilities, recruitment and retention of doctors and nurses and the delivery of emergency services for those in more remote locations.
Recommendations and reports will be provided as early as this fall.
