Mr. Speaker, on March 2 and 27, 1991, the honourable Member for Nahendeh asked whether the Department of Health had assessed the delivery of home care services in Fort Simpson. The Member also asked whether there had been any discussions on the development and implementation of a model for home care program in small communities.

A community health services and facilities review is under way, and the department expects to have a community profile by the end of April 1992. The Department of Health and the Mackenzie Regional Health Service will then meet with key respondents in Fort Simpson to review the information and develop service delivery options.

The Department of Social Services presently contracts for the delivery of home care and support services for elderly and disabled residents in the community. Discussions on home care services in Fort Simpson would be premature at this state and should wait until the formal review is complete.
