Thank you, Mr. Chair. At this point our priority is actually to provide training to our community health nurses so they have the knowledge, skills and ability they need to provide palliative care in the homes, so supporting individuals in their homes as opposed to moving them to a different facility or building. Once we’ve completed that training, we are able to provide palliative support in people’s homes. We’ll be able to assess the effectiveness of that and that will help inform any future direction which could include supporting some palliative beds in some communities throughout the Northwest Territories.
