OCHU Report On The Shortfall In Hospital Funding and February Newsletter

Funding cuts of 4% a year for 3 years will mean 7,500 fewer nurses, 1,800fewer PSW’s and 2,500 bed cuts. Hospitals have been told to budget for increases of 2% a year for the next 3 years, but their costs are rising by 6%. The independent Financial Accountability Office predicts cuts of 7,500 nurses, 1,800 psw’s and the cut of 2,500 beds.


CUPE is releasing a report on the impact of these cuts in 15 communities across Ontario and following that with 11 rallies at the constituency office of Conservative Members of Provincial Parliament.


Please attend the rally closest to you. Fighting back can save services and jobs. Help defend patient care.
