Jackie,
Thank you very much for your email and your persistence. The Alberta Party believes in outcome-based, long-term planning in Healthcare focused on prevention in every aspect: annual exams, prescreening, improved and early diagnosis, advancement in technology to support staff shortages, self-regulation, and addiction prevention education and regulation.
My vision of success for Alberta is to have 2050 goals across the government, focused on balancing the needs of our economy with the needs of our people and the environment. My energy experience has led me to the concept of life-cycle management of all of our precious resources: people, air, water, food, land, biodiversity, and resources to sustain a healthy and productive community.
I am supportive of all of the initiatives of CCSN, greater investment in screening and preventative medicine is primary. Using a life-cycle management approach will consider the staff and resource requirements based on community growth and demographics to support positive outcomes. There is no question our Healthcare system is in crisis and we need to be creative to ensure both healthcare workers are supported and resources are shared for maximum benefit. Finally, the ABP supports a Citizen’s Assembly approach to good governance, where experts like in CCSN, are included in decision-making processes, along with other Healthcare professions.
I have attached my complete platform document for your consideration. Should you wish to discuss this further, I am available at your earliest convenience.
Sincerely,
Jenny Yeremiy
Calgary-North West Alberta Party MLA Candidate
