Grey Bruce Health Services President and CEO Gary Sims says the next ten to 14 days are going to be very difficult for Ontario hospitals.
Sims says the COVID-19 pandemic is affecting hospitals all over the province including those in Grey Bruce, “If people think this is not real, it’s about to overload the healthcare system,” says Sims.
“The systems that you’ve come to rely on like hospitals are now at a point where our ICUs are filling so quickly, in the next ten to 14 days we could lose our ICU capacity,” says Sims. The Province has about 2,200 ICU beds and is trying to expand that number. ICU beds require highly specialized staff, which also makes it a human resources issue.
