The NDP's health critic finds it hard to believe Health Minister George Abbott won't even consider more funding for Vernon Jubilee Hospital. Adrian Dix says Abbott clearly didn't read the 25 page report submitted by doctors."I've been in the emergency room when there have been 21 patients waiting to go into the hospital who had already been admitted and were waiting for a bed. I've been walking the hallways when every bed is taken including the beds set up in the hallways. It doesn't take much to understand the staff do an extra-ordinary job with what they have. But they are clearly under funded." Dix encourages Vernon residents to keep raising their concerns with the government.
