First speaker was Andrea Martin of St. Marys, Self -Management Program Co-ordinator with the South Bruce Community Access Centre under LHIN. She stressed that when the Excellent Care for All Act was passed in 2010 patients now can, by law, expect to have fair help from their doctors and specialists. But you have to do your part. Martin gave points on how to get the most out of doctors' appointments - be open with the receptionist - ask for extra time if necessary - have blood work etc done beforehand - have a list of your questions and concerns - make sure you understand what the doctor is saying and maybe even bring a friend or relative. After lunch the speaker was Renee Simmons, family support and volunteer co-ordinator of Childcan, the Childhood Cancer Research Asso- ciation Inc.
