District pushes for more beds

Political pressure is building to get more patient care beds in operation now, not later.  Coldstream is now publicly endorsing the Vernon Jubilee Hospital Purple Ribbon Campaign.  The district’s support will add more pressure on the government to fund additional beds at VJH’s new patient care tower.  “We’re encouraging the provincial government to finish the two shelled-in floors now,” said Coun. Maria Besso. Coldstream will also make the campaign’s petition available at its municipal office for residents to sign, as well as on its website (www.districtofcoldstream.ca).
