Cypress Regional Hospital - Cypress Health Region
Patients wanting to have blood drawn at the Cypress Regional Hospital will likely have to wait a while.
One patient in particular shared her story with the Watch Dog.
Knowing that it can take a bit of time at the lab, she went early to beat the rush.
To her surprise at 7:45 am, there was a massive line up for blood work and only 2 staff in the Lab area.
She decided that maybe coming back during her coffee break would be a better idea...given the wait time.
When she made her way back at 10:30 am, there were signs up saying "WORKING SHORT".
Apparently, those signs work much like mosquito repellent because there was no one there and she was able to get her blood work done.
You would think that there would be a desire to hire full-time permanent staff so this wouldn't be an issue anymore right?
Apparently not.
Of the most recent 10 job postings for Cypress Health Region only 2 permanent positions (1 full-time and 1 part-time) were posted.
The rest - including Part-time Medical Laboratory Techs - were all Temporary positions (3 full-time and 5 part-time).
The Watch Dog wonders whether they have a problem with the certainty & stability attached to a permanent full-time work force.
Your thoughts?
