Fraser Health Fails to Provide Assurances About the Future of Obstetric and Paediatric Beds at Ridge Meadows Hospital

Jun 25 2010

The public forum I hosted in Maple Ridge Wednesday night  was well attended.  Families clearly expressed their desire to keep our paediatric and obstetric beds.  Fraser Health did a lot of talking about improving services and how they hadn’t made any decisions.  However, when questioned directly, they would not confirm that no beds will be removed from paediatrics and obstetrics at RMH.  We are circulating a petition in the community over the summer to further enforce our message to Fraser Health.  The petition is not at my office but you can find locations where it can be found through the “Help Save Ridge Meadows maternity Ward” group on Facebook.
