REGIONAL HOSPITAL DISTRICT July 24, 2012 Residents of the Similkameen Keremeos Village Hall Keremeos BC VOX 1NO Dear Executive Member: RE: Request for Letter of Support - Penticton Regional Hospital Patient Care Facility The Okanagan Similkameen Regional Hospital District has made an application to the Province of British Columbia, through Interior Health, expressing great concern about the deteriorating state of the undersized Penticton Regional Hospital (PRH). This hospital consistently operates at 110% of its capacity and serves a population base of approximately 90,000 citizens. PRH opened in 1951 to serve the acute health care needs of a population of 10,500. Back then, there were few medical services available, computers had not been invented and the "Baby-Boomers" were in their infancy. There have been many incredible technological changes in healthcare over the past 60 years along with the inclusion of the entire region's population and the natural aging of the residents.
