TO DO IN OCTOBER: EMAIL THE PREMIER
SSMHC IS ENCOURAGING ALL CONCERNED RESIDENTS TO WRITE DIRECTLY TO THE PREMIER OF ONTARIO, THE HONOURABLE DOUG FORD, TO EXPRESS THEIR CONCERNS, INCLUDING THAT THE MADE IN MUSKOKA MODEL BE STOPPED.
EMAIL: [email protected]
Our Purpose
The SSMHC does not support, and is opposed to, the Muskoka Algonquin Healthcare (MAHC) “Made in Muskoka” healthcare delivery model. In a recent detailed assessment, SSMHC identifies that Made in Muskoka jeopardizes the health, safety and well-being of the residents of South Muskoka.
The local physicians of South Muskoka oppose the MAHC’s Made in Muskoka model.
The local physicians have volunteered their expertise to develop an alternative healthcare delivery model called “Care Close to Home.” This model is unanimously supported by the doctors of South Muskoka.
Care Close to Home serves the healthcare needs of all of Muskoka on an equitable basis across the region. At its core is the goal to ensure that hospital healthcare is accessible across the region into the future. Better healthcare outcomes are achieved through hospital care close to home.
SSMHC strongly supports the Care Close to Home healthcare delivery model.
Get Involved
The SSMHC encourages residents to get involved.
