The Kenora District Services Board is taking a close look at call volumes for land ambulance service. Chief Administrative Officer Henry Wall says calls for service in 2020 totalled 15,833 up about 1% compared to the year before. Wall notes some communities saw dramatic spikes. “Pickle Lake where our call volume went up almost 22% over the last year. Ear Falls was 17%. In Kenora, it went up by just over 5%. So those are certain things that we are looking at to see what were the causes of that.” Wall notes people holding off on seeking immediate medical care due to COVID-19 concerns may have played a factor.
