BC Ombudsman to Review Seniors' Care in BC

Yesterday, Kim Carter (BC's Ombudsman) announced that she was initiating an investigation into all forms of seniors' care in BC. She didn't give a deadline as to when her investigation would be complete, but indicated that her investigation would take about 6 months to complete. It will be interesting to see her report on seniors' care in BC. Her counterpart in Ontario effectively slammed the Ontario government on its' handling of seniors' care there with similar problems surfacing there as have been reporting in the media here. No doubt that Ms. Carter's report, one way or the other, will be used during the 2009 Provincial General Election
