Letter - Community can help Lady Minto
Published: November 26, 2008 9:00 AMUpdated: November 26, 2008 9:20 AM
Saanich Peninsula Hospital currently has its annual campaign for financial support. We received a letter requesting a donation and stating that it is “your hospital.”
I have always regarded Lady Minto as “our hospital.”
At the present time I am aware that Lady Minto is having problems with a nursing shortage, but it is still our hospital.
I am wondering how our community can help this nursing situation.
Can the problem be partly traced to our lack of affordable housing? Or why is it we can’t attract nursing staff to our paradise island?
