The City of Summerside is hosting a public Town Hall meeting Thursday night at Credit Union Place regarding the Prince County Hospital – and the City says Health Minister Mark McLane and Interim Health PEI CEO Corinne Rowswell are to join the meeting.
Last week, Mayor Dan Kutcher and Summerside Council sent letters to McLane and Rowswell requesting action be taken on the suspension of ICU services at the PCH, and that they attend the Town Hall meeting. In their letters, they said that the decision to suspend all ICU services at the Prince County Hospital will jeopardize the health and outcomes of the citizens in Summerside, Prince County and the entire Province. The City advises that parking may be limited due to the fact there’s a convention and Maritime Junior Hockey League game being held at Credit Union Place at the same time. Doors to the Veteran’s Convention Centre inside Credit Union Place open at 6:15pm and the Town Hall meeting will begin at 7:00 PM.
