BCHPCA Visit to Ministry of Health

Briefing Note from BCHPCA to Minister Falcon Nov 3 2009
Proposal from BCHPCA to Minister Falcon Nov 3 2009

 
In late 2008 BCHPCA took part in a consultative process to provide input to the Ministry of Health Services (MOHS) to develop a provincial strategy and action plan for end of life care.  In February 2009 BCHPCA visited with Health Minister George Abbott to urge him to release the strategy. 

In November 2009 BCHPCA once again met in the Ministry offices with the newly appointed Minister Kevin Falcon to review the issues concerning hospice palliative and end of life care and to offer to assist in any way with the release and roll out of a provincial strategy.  We left Minister Falcon with background information and a clear outline of the issues we wish to remain in the forefront as we continue to plan for quality end of life care for all in BC.
