Thank you, Mr. Speaker. We have training arrangements both with the Stanton Hospital, as well as Capital Health and training can be provided to nurses quite readily and on a regular basis. As well, as we look a little ways down the road, we are also moving towards further enhancing the performance service mandate of LPNs, so they can take on those kind of duties as well. In Fort Smith, for example, we've trained nurses. They have that duty plus others and if they are fully booked up at the dialysis unit, that's what they do. If there is other time available, then they perform other functions as well. Thank you.
