If the Bracebridge hospital has fewer beds, does this mean it is at higher risk of closure?
No, the Bracebridge hospital is not at higher risk of closure. The multi-site regional hospital design ensures that the Bracebridge site and the Huntsville site are interdependent, with both working together to provide comprehensive services and safeguard against site closure.
Will the services offered by the hospital be privatized?
No, the services offered by the hospital will not be privatized. Muskoka Algonquin Healthcare opposes private clinic operations in the area, and the investment in new hospitals and comprehensive services is designed to deter privatization and ensure that services remain publicly managed.
