Blanche River Health Seeks Input from Public at Upcoming Community Meetings
Feedback to inform future direction of Englehart and Kirkland Lake Hospital Sites
Blanche River Health will host community sessions next month in Earlton, Englehart, Kirkland Lake and Larder Lake to hear from locals as part of its strategic planning initiative to help ensure the hospital’s focus reflects community needs over the next five years.
“Earlier this summer, we received a great response to our survey, and now we’re asking local residents to come meet hospital representatives and share their feedback in person with us,” said Jorge VanSlyke, President and CEO, Blanche River Health. “We want to make sure we understand the priorities of those who live in the communities we serve as we develop our five-year strategic plan.”
