In an address to Health P.E.I.’s AGM Wednesday, CEO Dr. Michael Gardam called the issues facing the organization “a perfect storm.”
The AGM was held in Summerside with about 80 people attending in person, and another 40 online.
There are fundamentally not enough workers in health care on P.E.I., said Gardam. There were retirements after the pandemic, and for every long-time physician lost it takes about three more to replace them.
