“As we head into 2025, Vancouver Island and the surrounding coastal communities we serve face challenges from an aging population and increased healthcare demand. To address them, we are committed to finding innovative solutions, prioritizing enhanced access to care, reducing emergency room wait times, providing timely seniors’ services, and forging stronger partnerships with family physicians. And we will focus on improving safety and experiences for First Nations, Metis, and Inuit peoples by tackling Indigenous-specific racism. We remain focused on growing and supporting our incredible care teams, the lifeblood of healthcare. We will invest in their development, provide safe and modern tools and environments, and celebrate them every day for the amazing work they do on behalf of the people we serve.” - Leah Hollins, Island Health Board Chair Read Leah Hollins end of year reflection at https://ow.ly/1gPQ50UxsGI
