Provincial and territorial health ministers have presented a united front as they seek more federal funding.
Leaders of the Canadian Federation of Nurses Unions and the Canadian Nurses Association met Tuesday with health ministers gathered in Vancouver to say each jurisdiction needs to pump cash into retaining and recruiting nurses and getting those who left the job to come back.We deliver the local news you need in these turbulent times on weekdays at 3 p.m.By clicking on the sign up button you consent to receive the above newsletter from Postmedia Network Inc.
The health ministers should accept a deal even if it’s less than the 35 per cent target they want, up from 22 per cent, Silas said.She said the nursing profession needs funding to reintroduce mentorship programs for new graduates and those entering specialties after further training. Retired nurses who returned to the workforce at vaccination clinics could also be urged to return to work through financial incentives, Silas said.
In August 2017, provinces and territories signed an agreement on improving access to home and community care as well as mental health and addiction services. Quebec signed a different agreement distinct from those priorities. The tailor-made deals involved a total of $11 billion in per capita funding over 10 years.
More bilateral deals based on demographics or economics, for example, would also give the federal government bargaining power as it deals with each jurisdiction rather than all of them in a single agreement, Mou said. “I think the federal government has a good argument from the perspective of Canadians in general because if you attach conditions, then provinces would have to report on how they achieve performance indicators that they would agree to at the beginning.”
