Telestroke offers two-way audio visual capabilities that link Emergency Department physicians to a neurologist anytime of the day or night, to provide rapid assessment, diagnosis and treatment of patients experiencing a stroke, giving them a better chance at survival. Friends Chair, Paul Arsenault, says the Foundations are delighted to be playing a role in bringing the Telestroke program to Moncton. “It will help ensure patients throughout New Brunswick have access to the best stroke care possible 24/7,” says Arsenault.

  • Waiting for Care in Canada: a Report on the State of Wait List Management for Hip and Knee Replacements from Provincial and Territorial Government Websites
    WAITING FOR CARE IN CANADA: A REPORT ON THE STATE OF WAIT LIST MANAGEMENT FOR HIP AND KNEE REPLACEMENTS FROM PROVINCIAL AND TERRITORIAL GOVERNMENT WEBSITES By Jennifer Bernier, Kristen MacLellan and Barbara Clow For Women and Health Care Reform March 2010 Funding for this project was provided by the Gender and Health Unit, Health Canada through the Women’s Health Contribution Program. The views expressed herein do not necessarily represent the views of Health Canada. INTRODUCTION Substantial restructuring of Canada’s health care system in the late 1980s and early 1990s created real concern about the quality of health care, including timely access to care. Regionalization and privatization might have led to increased efficiencies – though this is far from an accepted or established position – but it had certainly increased the amount of time people spent waiting for diagnostic and treatment services. In 1997, Health Canada commissioned a number of projects designed to assess the state of wait time management and a preliminary report delivered a scorching critique. “With rare exceptions,” concluded the authors, “waiting lists in Canada, as in most countries, are non-standardized, capriciously organized, poorly monitored, and (according to most informed observers) in grave need of retooling” (McDonald, et al, 1998). Over the next few years, researchers and clinicians continued to draw attention to the need to understand and address lengthy waits for health care and in 2004, Canada’s First Ministers established an accord to reduce waiting times for key health care services, including diagnostic imaging, screening programs and radiation therapy for cancer, by-pass surgery for heart disease, total hip and knee replacements, and surgical removal of cataracts.
