British Columbia’s health authority is dealing with a mass resignation of doctors from one of its hospitals.
Seven OB/GYNs have resigned from in-hospital care in Kamloops, according to a letter signed by the doctors on Saturday and obtained by CFJC News.
The doctors say they have safety concerns due to a changing workload and an inability to recruit, adding that they feel support for women’s health at the provincial level is lacking.
As Klaudia Van Emmerik reports, the situation is strikingly similar to a recent crisis at Kelowna General Hospital.

My elderly mother is in hospital …they tell me they could not turn her over in bed frequently ( she has nasty bedsores ) because of shortage of staff. When I came in this morning …8 staff around nursing station …chatting….laughing and occupied on their cell phones! Figure it out !!
It's Kamloops not Kelowna when you click on the article
😂 and all these hippies want more funding? Why should the tax payer pay for medical aide for non tax payers? Stop giving non taxpayers access.
Canada sucks.
Global News isn't trustworthy.

Ya though CBC was bad, then ya watched Global News.

It does not take time to shift a culture. Administrative staff, managers must simply treat staff with respect and dignity. The hospital needs to hire enough staff to deliver the care necessary. Too many hospitals have skeleton crews for high acuity leading to burnout. The government must support the need for more staff to deliver the standard of care.
Why does it says Kelowna on the heading on this utube? Wrong.
Eby and Dix need to resign
Wrong hospital
Gee…sure is a shame there wasn't some industry willing to bring income to BC… like a pipeline or something 🙄😏
