BC United calls for better healthcare
PRINCE GEORGE – Whether it’s emergency room capacity, operating room capacity, capital upgrades, or inadequate staffing, the B.C. United Party says the North has been long ignored by the NDP when it comes to health care.
“It’s been seven years with this NDP government. They haven’t meaningfully progressed the capital plan for UHNBC,” says BC United Candidate Kiel Giddens. “So what we’re seeing is emergency room overcrowding and a serious lack of surgical supports for people here in Prince George and across the northern health region, whether that’s cardiac care, operating time and there’s a system breakdown in the entire Northern health region.”
