Reduced funding drives health reform in Manitoba centre
The Hamiota District Health Centre reports a $16,793 budget cut for 92/93 and broader 93/94 reductions. Province imposes salary, supply, and equipment changes, freezes administrator hiring, and shifts staffing toward more aides with fewer LPNs. Staff proposed 13 no pay days, later dropped amid policy shifts, as boards press toward a balanced 93/94 budget and cost containment.
