There are many things contributing to the high mortality and morbidity of patients lately. Logistics is huge. When we have no ambulances and no ability to transfer, patients die. Patients end up, waiting due to minimal trucks. We use RCMP to transfer patients long distances. Patients wait longer for care due to wait times and transfers that are unnecessarily long. The stress and the system goes up because everybody is concerned about the patient and the stresses are causing even staff to treat each other differently. #emergency #healthcanada #trauma #traumahealing
