The number of walk-in clinics across B.C. has dropped between 30 to 50 per cent in recent years as clinics move to an appointment-only model or close their doors.
Some doctors warn that there are fewer and fewer options for immediate care in the province as urgent-care-clinic appointments remain hard to book in certain communities and emergency room waiting times continue to skyrocket.
“Wait times at ERs are getting horrific right now, and this might be actually the first year that we’ll talk about ER waiting times more openly,” said Jankowski .
“We’re not really thinking of systemic solutions in a way that truly address this, as opposed to moving the puck from one place to another, which isn’t working.” - Disability rights not a priority for any B.C. government.
