“Relative to projected growth in demand, by 2027-28, Ontario will have less hospital capacity, similar home-care capacity and less long-term care capacity compared to what it had in 2019-20,” wrote Financial Accountability Officer Peter Weltman in the report. A spokeswoman for Health Minister Sylvia Jones said the province is investing heavily in health care, has reduced wait times for key surgeries and “broke records” by registering more new nurses in 2022.
The province is in the midst of an ambitious plan to reform health care and alleviate strain on the system.Nursing shortages caused emergency departments to shutter temporarily for days or even weeks at a time last year. Pediatric hospitals were overwhelmed in the fall as they dealt with thousands of really sick children in intensive care units and emergency departments.
