Today, Sherry Romanado, Member of Parliament for Longueuil—Charles-LeMoyne and Parliamentary Secretary to the Minister of National Defence, and Peter Schiefke, Member of Parliament for Vaudreuil, on behalf of the Honourable Marjorie Michel, Minister of Health, announced more than $52 million in funding over five years to the Community Health and Social Services Network (CHSSN) and McGill University to improve access to health and social services professionals for Anglophone communities in Quebec.
These investments will support innovative projects to improve health services in English in Quebec through the Official Languages Health Program (OLHP). Initiatives include increasing access to care through community health networks, providing language training for health and social services professionals, intake staff and students, as well as improving recruitment and retention of bilingual health professionals.
