So the problem is not solved by the opening of one long term care facility. Let's get it right and stop being satisfied with short term rememdies to long term issues.

At the same time I've seen patients that need to be transitioned to a long term care facility that are taking up the beds at the hospital. These elderly patients need a place to go and Sudbury is completely back logged with elderly waiting for a nursing home. I work at a nursing home during the summer months and know first hand that the waiting list to be admitted there is well over 150 residents.

I love my job and I think it's safe to say the patients love the care. The level of care these patients are receiving is more than any long term could offer, due to their ridiculous alloted"time per patient". Things are running smoothly and this temporary place is WORKING, for both staff, patient AND THE COMMUNITY. People need to come and talk to the patients and staff to see just how good things really are here!
