Underfunding Ontario's rural hospitals has devastating results. The situation in this province is dire.
Instead of making the investments to keep ERs open, Ford has now created the largest cabinet in Ontario history. He is selling off our public healthcare. He’s only working for his rich developer friends. Not for Ontarians desperate to access healthcare. #ONpoli

#RainyRiver ER in #Ontario closed until Monday morning. Closest ER is over an hour away.
@SylviaJonesMPP does not speak of these closures that we’re aware of. Ever.
We all matter or none of us do
#SavePublicHealthcare
ALT Rainy river ER in Ontario is closed until June10 at 9am. Closest ER is on Fort Frances. If you require immediate medical assistance please call 911

Doctors on bracebridge not only see local patients but also surrounding areas. Minden, Haliburton, even orillia. What happens when the hospital gets cut in half? Where will the people go? The population is increasing 10 fold! Not only in summer but all around!

Muskoka’s hospitals are in turmoil due to @fordnation’s ‘something for everybody, not enough for anybody’ mentality.
South Muskoka Hospital shouldn’t be fighting for its inpatient beds and obstetrics program.
This whole thing is wrong.

They already closed the Burks Falls hospital. Now they want to gut Bracebridge.
If they weren't amalgamated they wouldn't be under threat. If hospital boards were still elected they wouldn't be under threat. If we had a better provincial gov't they wouldn't allow this.

The Hunstville hospital dates back to 1895. Bracebridge? 1928.
The idea that two hospitals in two different towns- both of which are full much of the time, sometimes overflowing - is "duplication" is nonsense.

Today, registered nurses and their community allies rallied in Huntsville & Bracebridge to demand Muskoka Algonquin Healthcare CEO Cheryl Harrison return RN positions eliminated last year to baseline staff at @mahchospitals. More nurses means better care for you! #onhealth
Thank you to everyone who came out to support our nurses on Saturday!!

This is happening across Ontario, not just in Muskoka. Small municipality vows legal action over hospital's in-patient bed closure. @RickMaloneyBB @DistrictMuskoka @GraydonTheMPP thetrillium.ca/news/health/s… via @Thetrilliumca

More statistics, from the District of Muskoka's Second Home Study 2022. There's a reason why South Muskoka Hospital is so busy. It serves a permanent and seasonal population of more than 100,000. 36 acute care beds are not enough! @DistrictMuskoka @MAHCHospitals @GraydonTheMPP
