Province nears goal of 1,000 new health-care hires
5 minute read Updated: 6:27 PM CDTThe Manitoba government is closing in on its “ambitious” goal of hiring 1,000 net new health-care workers this fiscal year to ease chronic staff shortages, Premier Wab Kinew announced Thursday.
Kinew said the province has added 873 public employees since the budget was unveiled in April, making him optimistic the target will be reached before the end of March.
“I want to be clear, we’re not putting up the mission accomplished banner just yet,” he said during a news conference at Grace Hospital.
“It is going to take us many years of sustaining this kind of effort for us to deliver the improvements to health care that we want to see for patients right across this great province.”
