Campbell needs to deal with the crisis in seniors' care in BC, not try to import ineffective for-profit models from Europe . |
It's scandalous that Premier Campbell is in Europe furthering his plot to privatize our system while here at home seniors across the province are suffering from lack of home support, residential care beds, and end of life care. |
Premier Campbell could make better use of his time in Europe by investigating elder care models in Scandinavia. Denmark , in particular, has an internationally acclaimed model of elder care and home support services. |
Swedish health care is a complex system that has arisen from the country's own historical roots. Campbell is cherry-picking for- profit models to serve his own privatization agenda, rather than looking at how the system functions overall. For example, less than 10% of Swedish physicians are in private practice. |
Where is the transparency and accountability on this project? Communities have a right to input into the plan before it is a done deal. |
