Planning for the Future

The Medical Advisory Committee (MAC) of Muskoka Algonquin Healthcare (MAHC), consisting of department chiefs, clinical committee chairs, medical directors, and physician leads from both North and South Muskoka, has provided its strong endorsement through a consensus statement in support of the proposed health system plan designed to transform regional healthcare delivery.

Muskoka Algonquin Healthcare (MAHC) continues to make strides in the redevelopment and expansion of healthcare in the Muskoka region.  These efforts are supported by ongoing discussions with physicians and extensive stakeholder feedback, focusing on enhancing healthcare delivery across our communities.

Muskoka Algonquin Healthcare (MAHC) is aware that the community has been encouraged to participate in a gathering this coming Saturday in support of a health care model proposed by some South Muskoka physicians earlier this year.  Some communications related to the gathering contain misinformation.

Muskoka Algonquin Healthcare (MAHC) outlines how the new health system plan will transform care for patients who no longer need intensive hospital treatment but still require ongoing care (known as Alternate Level of Care, or ALC).  This initiative aims to improve health outcomes throughout the region.

Muskoka Algonquin Healthcare (MAHC) is pleased to announce the launch of its new microsite dedicated to the proposed health system and the sharing of Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs).

Earlier this week, Muskoka Algonquin Healthcare (MAHC) announced updates to our evolving proposal for the new hospital developments in Bracebridge and Huntsville following productive discussions with our physicians. As we prepare to advance into the next phase of engagement, it has become clear that we need to enhance our communication about the actual details of the proposal and the significant benefits it brings to our community.

Today’s update aims to clarify and underscore the advantages of our updated planned developments as we seek additional feedback in discussion with our partners and communities.

Muskoka Algonquin Healthcare (MAHC) continues its important engagement and is updating the community on recent work with physicians and other team members resulting in changes to the proposal for new hospitals.

For this week’s update, Muskoka Algonquin Healthcare (MAHC) is excited to share how the great provincial and local investment in healthcare including new hospital builds will significantly enhance the quality of work life for all team members.  Here we are explaining some important dimensions the community may not know about.

Muskoka Algonquin Healthcare (MAHC) is encouraged about changes being explored following an engagement session Wednesday evening with the Credentialed Staff Association (CSA) that includes physicians and other care providers from both North and South Muskoka.

After considerable analysis and extensive consultation with stakeholder groups, Muskoka Algonquin Healthcare (MAHC) is in the process of examining changes to the proposed health system model in the lead-up to a Physician engagement session on Wednesday night.  Potential adjustments include increasing the number of beds in Bracebridge and exploring the possibility of continued labour and delivery in Bracebridge.
