The Mayor and Deputy Mayor of East-Zorra-Tavistock are hoping to see light at the end of the tunnel for 80 long-term beds that are slated to move out of Tavistock's Bonnie Brae facility. Don McKay and Maureen Ralph are meeting with Minister of Health Deb Mathews Monday morning while attending the ROMA/OGRA Conference in Toronto. McKay says there will be a strong provincial presence at the conference with several other key players and he says they hope to get that message out there that Tavistock needs those long-term care beds to stay "I don't think we'll get there by just doing nothing. We need to enable the private sector to do what they are willing, so let's make sure we get out of the way. We just need to not get caught in the Ministry approving that and then not approving something coming back". McKay says they don't want to lose any beds in Tavistock or Oxford County over the 5 year time frame, but he says there may some give and take over the short term to get the results they want - to replace and upgrade their long-term care facilities.
