“Interior Health (IH), in collaboration with the Ministry of Health, is engaging with partners to better support overnight emergency care through a mix of virtual and on-site staffing, which is expected to enable more consistent access by reducing unplanned service interruptions. Engagement is underway with physicians, staff, Indigenous and local governments to better understand perspectives and integrate them into the planning for the pilots planned at community hospitals in Clearwater, Nakusp, Lillooet, and Princeton.”
