Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Once a referral for a colonoscopy is made to Stanton, that referral is received immediately. It’s taken into account immediately and Stanton staff works to prioritize the list of referrals. It’s really important to note that people who need this procedure on an emergency basis get them.
A wait list for this sort of procedure is an issue all across the country. Stanton is not an exception and they are working to find efficiencies within the
system to make sure that the service is used as efficiently as possible.
