Opportunities
Rural Healthcare Assistance Program
Wellness Centres
Community wellness centres target the employed, but uninsured. They will offer a range of primary healthcare services at affordable rates – as well as treatment for chronic conditions, mental health, trauma and counselling. These centres will become viable as rural incomes grow.
Emergency Services
In many rural areas people wait hours or even days for an ambulance. Rural families are often forced to pay high fees for private transport. While the sick and injured are put at risk. The development of a local emergency response program would alleviate this problem, while also creating rural jobs.
Mobile Clinics
Mobile Clinics deliver important, but non-critical care, such as optometry, dentistry and radiology. There is an opportunity to establish these clinics in strategic rural hubs - serving neighboring communities on a rotational basis.
