Mixed reaction from Red Deer politicians and doctors on provincial health care announcement
A former board member of the long-defunct David Thompson Regional Health Authority believes there’s some reason for concern about the Alberta Government’s big health care announcement Wednesday.
The province announced it is revamping the system by separating it into four units — those being primary care, acute care, continuing care, and mental health.
The province says all bodies will work together in an integrated approach, while AHS will be repurposed and have a singular focus on acute care delivery.
