Fair Care Everywhere
In rural B.C., patients often face overwhelming challenges just to access essential healthcare. Many endure long travel times, and some go without care entirely. These inequities aren’t just inconvenient—they’re a crisis threatening the sustainability of communities that fuel our economy through industries like forestry, mining and tourism. BC Family Doctors is committed to addressing these disparities head-on.
The problem
- Emergency room closures and long waits for primary care.
- Chronic staffing shortages leading to burnout among physicians and other healthcare workers.
- Inadequate patient transportation and the loss of doctors to urban migration.
The solution
- Increase healthcare staffing to reduce wait times and prevent burnout.
- Invest in reliable transportation systems for patients to access care.
- Provide fair pay for rural doctors and other rural healthcare workers to attract and retain healthcare professionals.
Act now
Everyone in B.C. deserves healthcare that’s accessible, reliable and equitable. Join us in demanding action from policymakers and building a coalition of communities, organizations, and individuals who care about fair care everywhere.
