News Briefs from the June 2017 Blue Water Rest Home Board Meeting…

Blue Water Rest Home and other non-profit nursing homes from Huron and Perth Counties met with Lisa Thompson, MPP Huron-Bruce and Randy Pettepiece, MPP Perth-Wellington on May 19, 2017 to discuss the potential loss of long-term care beds in Perth County and also advocate for spousal reunification to be a priority when transitioning from social housing and retirement into long-term care.  We also raised awareness about the sector wide challenges of health human resources in rural areas that we are all faced with.  They appreciated the meeting and we will plan follow-up discussions again in Fall 2018.
