Russell area fights to keep chemo service at local hospital
Mayor Vern Rosnoski and local officials press the Marquette Regional Health Authority to retain chemotherapy in Russell amid talks of shifting services to Neepawa and other towns. They cite elderly patients, travel barriers, and recent board resignations as reasons to reconvene with the health board and Health Minister. Replacement sites in Hamiota and a preliminary Russell satellite are discussed, with safety cabinets and transport costs noted as decisive factors.
