In response to fresh reports of extreme overcrowding, long wait times, and hallways crowded with patients at Regina's Pasqua Hospital, the Saskatchewan NDP is calling on the Sask. Party Health Minister to release the findings of the hallway medicine review he ordered in October, or if it’s yet to be completed, to provide an update on the work being done to address the issue.
"We know that overcrowding, long waits and hallway medicine are the reality in both Saskatoon and Regina, yet this government has been painfully slow to act," said NDP Leader Ryan Meili. "Now flu season is upon us, and our Emergency Rooms are bursting at the seams.”
