Madam Chair, I wish to speak to this motion, in favour of this motion, by using the soothing words of then Auditor General of Canada, Ms. Sheila Fraser. My reference is to the tabled document of March 1, 2011, in this House from the Auditor General with respect to this motion directly.
Page 14, paragraph 39, “Recommendation: Department of Health and Social Services, in collaboration with health and social services authorities, should identify a course of diabetes education, prevention and treatment programs; monitor implementation of programs across the
Northwest Territories; identify and collect data to measure program results; and use this data to improve program delivery.”
The department’s response: Agreed. “Establishing a chronic disease management model for the Northwest Territories is currently identified as a key action contained in the Foundation for Change, the Department of Health and Social Services system action plan for 2009-2012. The recommendations related to diabetes will be addressed with the overall model of chronic disease prevention and management delivered through primary community care teams. The first draft of this model has been developed and is to be completed in 2011-2012.”
Madam Chair, as I said, this was a tabled document in 2011 and it’s substantiation of the results of this audit from the Auditor General of that time was completed in September 2010. We are now in 2013 and we believe that the time has come for the Department of Health and Social Service to fully implement this chronic disease management model. Thank you, Madam Chair.
