🚨Advocacy Win for the EOWC! The Eastern Ontario Wardens' Caucus has long advocated for sustainable, community-based models and funding to support municipally operated community paramedicine programs. We are proud to see this become a permanent part of Ontario’s healthcare landscape. We thank Premier @fordnation, Minister @NatKusendova and Minister @GregRickford for their government’s investment of $89 million to make the Community Paramedicine for Long-Term Care (CPLTC) program permanent and expand its reach — including into more rural and First Nations communities. For rural and small urban eastern Ontario, where distance and access often create barriers, community paramedicine is a game-changing solution. The EOWC has championed aging in place, and the CPLTC program is a proven model that supports seniors where they want to be most — at home. This investment means: 🔹 24/7 access to non-emergency medical care 🔹 Reduced pressure on hospitals and long-term care homes 🔹 Faster interventions that prevent health crises 🔹 Expanded services to underserved and remote areas The EOWC will continue to support our partners at @OAPCMedia who help drive this program forward.
