Discussion about Home & Community Care on Thetis Island

Thursday, February 5th from 2 pm – 3 pm at Forbes Hall.

Over the years, Thetis Island residents have discussed the need for ongoing health care on the island.  At present, there is none (except flu shot clinic) and it is not within VIHA’s present plans to expand their services.

Yet, with some form of local assistance, aging residents and those with other health issues could choose to remain in their homes without moving off the island to access those services. Ultimately, other local health-related services could be offered as identified and needed.

To continue the discussion, you are invited to this “rekindling” one hour meeting to:

1.       Hear what has been done to date.

2.       Discuss local health-related needs and possible solutions.

3.       Identify a do-able plan of action for the next few months.

If you are unable to attend but want to participate in the ongoing discussion, please send your thoughts and comments to ckasting@telus.net
