We need to maintain and strengthen the services we have at Souris Hospital; not take away. The proposed changes by Health PEI to our hospital will provide less care to our residents and will be a detriment to patients needing medical attention. Souris Hospital as a functioning community hospital is vital to the life of the people and community of North East PEI. Souris Hospital is an essential community and rural infrastructure that supports business and industry. Local doctors and organizations have stated the hospital needs to remain a fully functioning health care facility to provide required ancillary support to all health care providers. Recently announced changes to reduce acute beds, nursing staff and the lab will result in an inability to function as a community hospital.- this makes no sense economically or medically. 

We urge government to only make changes that reinforces the Souris Hospital role as a fully functioning community hospital. The North East Community Alliance is in strong support of the Island Wide Hospital Access (IWHA) Committee and has created this petition on their behalf. If you support maintaining and strengthening the role of the Souris Hospital, please sign this petition and spread the word.
