That word is \u201cor\u201d versus \u201cand.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The wording of the purpose of the hospital in the proposed special act is where the issue lies.<\/p>\n<p>According to Kawartha Lakes Health Coalition\u2019s co-chair, Zac Miller, \u201cSection 3 of this special act changes the objects of the hospital. RMH lawyers have chosen to insert the word \u201cor\u201d rather than \u201cand\u201d in this clause. This means that the board can operate a hospital or a different type of health facility which effectively means they no longer have to run a hospital.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s the KLHC\u2019s belief that \u201cor\u201d should be removed and amended to require the board to run a hospital.<\/p>\n<p>The large crowd of concerned community members showed their unanimous support for stopping this new legislation, known as private bill 21, which was submitted on Feb. 27. It\u2019s a bill that, according to the KLHC, would:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Wipe out community memberships and create a self-appointing board of directors.<\/li>\n<li>Change the goals of the hospital so it no longer has to run as a hospital<\/li>\n<li>Wipe out existing laws from 1903 that allowed for community input in the direction as a hospital<\/li>\n<li>Allow mergers or even to be closed with no public vote<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>As earlier reported in the Advocate, when asked about this wording and if people should be concerned, interim RMH CEO, Veronica Nelson replied, \u201cThe language in the proposed special act enables flexibility for the hospital to enhance or expand services without opening another corporation. If the hospital changed the word \u2018or\u2019 to \u2018and\u2019 it would be required to also operate \u2018a different type of health facility\u2019 in addition to the hospital; this is not practicable nor an effective use of public resources<\/p>\n<p>Nelson also notes that when the hospital was founded under the special act in 1903, the health system was much simpler.<\/p>\n<p>Now, \u201cOntarians receive care from many health service providers and hospitals are only one part of it. The 1903 language limits the hospital\u2019s ability to adapt to new care models as our healthcare environment changes, including the introduction of Ontario Health Teams.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Natalie Mehra, executive director of the Ontario Health Coalition, came to the Lindsay meeting. She told the assembled crowd that it\u2019s their best interests to fight the change.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe have time to stop this legislation.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Simon Archer, the lawyer for KLHC from Goldblatt Partners, agreed with Mehra.<\/p>\n<p>Archer says \u201cwording that RMH considers housekeeping is actually a fundamental change.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt obscures that meaning and leaves a lot up to interpretation,\u201d he says.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-5128 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/lindsayadvocate.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/hospital-seniors-768x552.jpeg\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 348px) 100vw, 348px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/lindsayadvocate.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/hospital-seniors-768x552.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/lindsayadvocate.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/hospital-seniors-150x108.jpeg 150w, https:\/\/lindsayadvocate.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/hospital-seniors-1024x736.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/lindsayadvocate.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/hospital-seniors-480x345.jpeg 480w, https:\/\/lindsayadvocate.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/hospital-seniors-696x500.jpeg 696w, https:\/\/lindsayadvocate.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/hospital-seniors.jpeg 1280w\" alt=\"\" width=\"348\" height=\"250\" \/>Ross Memorial Hospital was a gift to the community in 1903 from James L Ross. Ross, a successful railway engineer and philanthropist, had lived briefly in Lindsay and covered the entire cost of the hospital\u2019s construction on the condition that \u201cthe County maintain the facility as it would not only be a memorial to his parents, but also a gift to the community he had once called home.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The hospital was founded on a \u201cspecial act\u201d that included community members having a say in the direction of the hospital.<\/p>\n<p>Without community members as members of the hospital and the move to a self-appointed board, this could completely eliminate the public\u2019s voice, according to Archer, which was not part of the vision of the original gift of our hospital.<\/p>\n<p>Archer explains that if this bill is passed then the \u201coriginal vision and intent is lost.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>As a not-for-profit entity, Archer believes RHM should continue to allow memberships, noting most non-profits do.<\/p>\n<p>Miller says \u201cwe are running out of time to stop this legislation.\u201d He says even if the current board has no intention of changing anything, it leaves things open for the future.<\/p>\n<p>The co-chair of KLHC says who knows what will happen in five years or ten years down the road because once the wording is changed \u201canything can happen.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #3366ff;\"><a style=\"color: #3366ff;\" href=\"https:\/\/lindsayadvocate.ca\/rmh-in-danger-of-losing-hospital-status-says-ohc-we-have-to-stop-this-legislation\/\">Click here for original article\u00a0<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>(March 6, 2020) By:\u00a0\u00a0Joli Scheidler-Benns, The Lindsay Advocate Hundreds of people gathered at a town hall-style meeting last night at the Lindsay Recreation Centre determined to stop Ross Memorial Hospital from becoming anything other than a hospital.
