AuscandocAugust 1, 2024 - President's Letter | #AlbertaMedicalAssociation https://www.albertadoctors.org/services/media-publications/presidents-letter/pl-archive/no-answer-to-our-sos “There is no imminent help to keep #RuralGeneralist physicians in their clinics – not to mention the #RuralHospitals that utterly depend on their presence to run #EmergencyDepartments. Meanwhile, #AcuteCare, gutted by the pandemic, has been overwhelmed by increased illness and complex disease in patients…Our colleagues have continually been told to do more with less and just make it work.”
No answer to our SOS
PRESIDENT'S LETTER: Two fall 2023 stabilization proposals – and months of advocacy – were an SOS call to the Government of Alberta from Alberta’s physicians. I’m sorry to say that there has been no answer. I have repeatedly asked you to be patient as we waited for meaningful action to address our concerns. I am not giving up, but I know that not everyone can afford to hold on indefinitely.
