Thank you, Madam Chair. Madam Chair, what we are concerned about--and I have met with some of the people in Stanton, but is an issue in every community--is the end of life period of time with people who live in the communities. Sometimes they
require hospital care. Sometimes they can be looked at at home. We are working with the services we do have with the nurses and the home care people to try to ensure that we are very responsive and sensitive and trained as best we can to deal whenever possible with the end of life situations in the home community. In the health centres and hospitals like Stanton, Inuvik, Hay River and Fort Smith, the staff there are also trained. They use the acute care beds. The Member is correct; we don't have a separate palliative care unit or hospice, but we do try to accommodate that very critical final time in a very sensitive way. Thank you.
