Abandoning rural hospitals is abandoning rural Canadians. Family doctors are the backbone of emergency care in rural Canada. They save lives in ERs, deliver babies, care for elders, and hold entire communities together. cfpc.ca/en/statement...

Family physicians are often the ones providing this critical emergency care, alongside the full spectrum of longitudinal, relationship-based care their patients rely on. Every person in British Columbia deserves access to comprehensive, culturally safe care that’s close to home.

We echo the SRPC’s response to André Picard’s July 8 column. Rural emergency departments are not optional – they are essential to ensuring timely, equitable access to care for people in rural, remote, and underserved communities.👩‍⚕️

I am grateful to Dr. Verma & the BC College of Family Physicians (BCCFP). The longitudinal care provided by family physicians is a vital part of our health care system. Thank you to all the members of BCCFP for your care and dedication to the well-being of British Columbians. @bccfp.bsky.social
