GOMPLINENTARY M MARVYN MORGAN** 853-2086 NOT INTENDED TO SOL shifting resources within the budget to put more focus on our reform priorities.” One such reform is the construc- tion of a community-based, consumer centered health system in Halton Hills. “The seniors issue is very critical,” Ennis admitted. “District health councils (DHC) have been instrumen- tal in aiding the Ministry. They advise us which issues are of greatest concern, and we act accordingly.” He added DHCs are currently establishing new mandates to design long-term care ser- vices, through re-structured committees focusing solely on this concern. These long-term care com- mittees will become multi- service agencies, co-ordinat- ing and delivering in-home health and personal care, such as physiotherapy, nurs- ing and homemaking. The committees will also provide case management and deter- mine eligibility for long-term care facilities. “We will final- ly introduce one-stop shop- ping which Ontario seniors have been advocating for GEORGETOWN WITH WALKOUT $185,000 in} Country-in-town.
