PAM to Meet With New Health Minister

Manitoba's new Minister of Health, Honourable Theresa Oswald, has asked to meet with representatives of the Paramedic Association of Manitoba on Tuesday, November 21st. This will be our first opportunity to meet with Minister Oswald since her appointment as Health Minister, and comes in response to a request we sent to the Minister's office shortly after she took office.

PAM Director Jodi Possia and I will take this opportunity to discuss a number of items with Minister Oswald, including self-regulation, the status of the EMS Framework Project and the need for more consistent and sustainable service delivery to position our pre-hospital system for future needs. Initiatives around education and professional integration will undoubtedly also be tabled for discussion.
