An opportunity to answer questions and clear up any misunderstandings on the work of Northern Health in the Prince Rupert area has been launched by way of a new Social Media forum through Facebook.
The forum is described as one to serve Northern Health's commitment to delivering health information and services at a local level, providing for awareness and discussion on all things health in the Prince Rupert Region.
Among some of the topic that may be reviewed on the forum include:
Health resources.
Information on NH services in your community.
Health concerns and questions in your community.
Health care facilities and services in your community.
Featured jobs.
As well, the forum will celebrate the work of Northern Health's people and the great things they do to help promote healthy lifestyles in northern BC, including great stories from the Prince Rupert area.
Administrators for the group will be monitoring the site from 8AM to 7PM
You can learn more about the forum and the protocols for participation here.
The forum has already helped to clear up one misunderstanding in the community, that related to the current level of mammography services through Prince Rupert Regional Hospital, with Northern Health noting that the Prince Rupert position is in the process of a training program for technician.
A newly introduced theme for the forum that was introduced has been to ask what preparations may be in place by Northern Health for response to any COVID-19 issues in the region.
That topic has yet to be addressed by the forum moderators to this point.
You can joint the forum and explore more issues and inquires from the Facebook page here.
