The Ontario Health Coalition released a report appealing for equity and improved access to hospital services in rural Ontario. The report \u201cToward Access and Equality: Realigning Ontario\u2019s Approach to Small and Rural Hospitals to Serve Public Values\u201d is based on input received from more than 1,150 people who attended 12 hearings in regions across Ontario in March 2010. The coalition organized its own public hearings after the government\u2019s own rural and northern health panel, created after hospital closures in small and rural communities, refused to hold any public consultations. In total the coalition received 487 submissions into the state and future of local hospitals. Today\u2019s report has been written and submitted to the Ontario Health Coalition by a non-partisan panel including doctors, nurses, health professionals, representatives of each region of Ontario, and representatives active in each political party.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
