Rural Healthcare in Saskatchewan
In recent years, concerns have been raised by healthcare workers, and by the public, about shifts in the delivery of healthcare in rural Saskatchewan. CUPE Local 5430, which represents an array of healthcare and ancillary workers, has expressed an interest in understanding how recent changes in the delivery of healthcare in rural parts of the province have impacted their members and what these changes might mean for the overall direction of rural health service delivery in the province. The goal of this research project is to provide a picture of what changes have occurred over the past five years.
