Public attendance encouraged to help shape the future of health care.
LONDON, ON, July 6 /CNW/ -
NEWS
The South West LHIN is pleased to announce a series of 17 public sessions
in communities across the LHIN to provide an opportunity for the public to
help shape the future of health care in the south west. The sessions will take
place on weekday evenings from 7:00 - 9:00 p.m. in July and September.
In 2006, the Ontario government created Local Health Integration Networks
(LHINs) to plan, coordinate and fund local health services. As the South West
LHIN works to update its three-year Integrated Health Service Plan, we are
hosting a series of community sessions throughout your area to:- Share information about current trends and issues
- Listen to your ideas and concerns about the health care system
- Celebrate recent enhancements to the health care system
- Receive your feedback on proposed priority areas for improvements
These public forums will have an "open house" format allowing you to
participate in a variety of ways. While there is no requirement to arrive
right at the start, the South West LHIN is suggesting participants plan for a
one-hour time commitment.
