rid too Huron wary about province's plan
for regional health councils
A report on regional health
planning in Ontario that would
,:put Huron County into a Health
District with Perth, Oxford,
'Middlesex and Elgin counties has
,10ipset Huron county officials.
The Mustard report calls for
the formation of 39 district
',!;.'councils throughout the province
which would administer long term
••health care planning, now
handled by individual hospitals
and clinics.
At a press conference Friday
,';Huron clerk-treasurer John Berry
'said the report, with a covering
. letter from Health Minister Frank
;:`•Miller dated June 18, was
received by county council on July
• The minister asked for
,,,municipal responses to the
't report's recommendations by
September 1.
Mr. Berry said local officials
.% and the Huron Board of Health
ere concerned about the small
;`amount of time left in which to
:make suggestions. A special
;meeting of County Council has
been called for August 12 to
;,discuss the report and a Board of
,;flealth recommendation which is
critical of it.
"We are concerned -about what
,,would happen to the people of
r.,Huron County if this report was
adopted", Mr. Berry said. In the
five county district with a total
population of about 550,000,
;Huron would be the smallest unit
ith a 50,000 population.
This district would be much too ;larg e t give Huron any individual
attention, the administrator said. The proposed Grey and Bruce
;health district would have a total
Population of only about 114,000,
while the Lambton and Kent
,district, again containing only two
,counties, would have a total
,,opula ion of about 20,000, 14..t, aid.
Members of county council will
ant to know why Huron has
been put into such a large district,
,"Mr Berry said.
There
Berry sailcsi, aa'bsoout6)tnhceernienellari ,regula orYphilosophy of the epoft iite said the provincial
c'vernment was "always talking
;about doing away
with special purpose bodies, then they turn
around and create another one".
'The report advocates, the clerk
said, 6 doct ors and 6 nurses for
every 15,000 people. Warden Bill
Elston said he got the impression
from the report that "people will
be reduced to the point where
they won't have a personal doctor
anymore" and that a nurse will
decide whether you can see a
doctor or not.
Goderich deputy reeve Stan
Profit called the report "socialism
beyond David Lewis' wildest
dreams". "It's the thin edge of
the regional wedge", he
maintained, and would virtually
eliminate the Huron County H
ealth Unit.
A fair sized staff would be
needed to administer the district
councils, Mr. Berry said, "And of
course this all adds up in cost".
Reeve Harold Lobb of Clinton
said he would like to see the
Minister of Health at the special
county council meeting to answer
questions on the report.
All hospital boards in the
county and medical staffs have
been invited to the August 12
meeting to discuss the
controversial health care
proposals.
