ICYMI: Sydney woman hopes march for health care causes improvements to Cape Breton emergency department | SaltWire
MacDonald's concern started when the paramedics' union started issuing code blues because there were limited or no ambulances available.
MacDonald has her own emergency department horror story that happened at Cape Breton Regional Hospital 13 years ago. Brian Comer minister responsible for the Office of Addictions and Mental Health announced the Mental Health Foundation of Nova Scotia will be getting $3 million in funding for grants. - ContributedCape Breton East MLA Brian Comer told the Cape Breton Post he's heard from constituents about their concerns regarding health care and has met with Cape Breton Regional Hospital emergency department nurses to discuss theirs.
Some strategies announced include having patient advocates in the emergency departments, which sources at Cape Breton Regional Hospital said have already been put in place there. Since the other group moved their start time to coincide with the march, MacDonald hopes they respect the intention behind the march.
