Manitoba Health Minister Sharon Blady has announced a number of projects to maintain and improve health care facilities throughout the Northern Health Region will soon be underway. For the Flin Flon General Hospital she announced there will be flooring, ceiling system and lighting replacement, carpet removal, terrazzo floor restoration and a water filtration system as well as tub replacement at the Flin Flon Personal Care Home.

The Region’s Chief Executive Officer Helga Bryant says they welcome these investments which provide the ability to maintain their facilities so they can continue to provide quality, accessible health services to the residents of the north.

Blady says work is expected to be completed in the next two years.
