South Peace Health Council Briefs Highlights New Staff
The South Peace Health Council met at Chetwynd General Hospital on Oct 1 with updates on medical staff. A physiotherapist will serve Chetwynd and Tumbler Ridge, while Dawson Creek prepares its first resident pediatrician with oncology focus to serve the Northeast region. A provincial locum roster now lists 35 physicians, aiming for 50, easing vacancies in Chetwynd. locums require five days and may be harder to secure where on-call hours are heavy.
