How Can Rural Ontario Access Better Health Care?

The Agenda with Steve Paikin (Audio)

Emergency department closures, long wait times, falling rates of primary care. Now, imagine if the closest hospital is more than a 2-hour drive away. Access to basic and complex health services has been a continual challenge for rural Ontarians. At the Rural Ontario Municipalities Association conference to discuss why that is and what can be done about it are: Dr. Dominik Nowak, President of the Ontario Medical Association; Doris Grinspun, CEO of the Registered Nurses' Association of Ontario; and, Neil MacLean, Executive Director of the Brightshores Research Institute. They join Steve Paikin to discuss the challenges and solutions.
