How Can We Change?
What can be done differently to provide quality care for the patients and families across Niagara who need it?
Going forward we must make the best use of our valuable resources – people, financial, facility, technology and equipment – in order for us to deliver the best care possible for the residents of Niagara into the future. We also have to identify the community investments that need to be made in the broader community, to shift reliance off of acute care services for those services that are best provided to patients in non-institutional settings like community health centres and community clinics. Investments in community services are vital to enable our hospital to focus on its core business of providing acute care. Health-care is about more than hospitals.
Our entire community has a vested interest in health-care in Niagara, and by working together, we can overcome the barriers and take the next steps in the evolution of NHS services, programs and sites. Our common goal is better health and better health-care for the people of Niagara, now and in the future.
