The Friday Camburger: How does que-jumping build a caring culture?
The media around these parts have many stories and angles
covered about the que-jumping debate in the province’s health system following
the release of a report. You can find the details, stats, figures, graphs —
everything you wanted and more — in those reports. I’m not going to debate the
report today, but rather ask a question: what kind of a caring culture does
que-jumping create?
We need to challenge ourselves to be mindful of Albertans
with severe health issues should be a priority. As a province we have a
responsibility in that regard. We need to ensure all Albertans that when they
go to get medical help they will get it in a timely manner. Part of the
recovery process in any illness starts the minute a physician starts listening
to a patient. That hope is priceless.
It’s no secret: the Alberta family is expanding. We need to
care for one another in new ways and be compassionate and understanding as our
population grows. Building an unselfish culture is crucial as we move forward
into the future: putting others first. I really don’t see how que-jumping will
increase Albertan’s capacity to care for eachother.
