Just to make it simple, I think one of the key things is developing midwifery regulations. The thing with it is to ensure that the model would work effectively and would be beneficial to the region. Once the health centre is built, Hay River is going to be like a small regional operation as opposed to just a community operation like it is in Fort Smith. That is why we are rolling it out in that fashion. The next step after that would be a larger regional operation, or people grabbing midwife services in Inuvik would be coming from further away, so the visits are different and the care is different. It’s going to be that type of service.
