HHS reboots to start WLMH “planning process” By Mike Williscraft NewsNow What started as an announcement of an ultimate direction with no timeline for implementation regarding West Lincoln Memorial Hospital’s operating rooms, is now being called a “planning process”. Hamilton Health Sciences officials met with WLMH staff over a series of meetings on Monday, Oct. 21 and outlined the findings from a five-page executive summary of a study commissioned to give one solution to issues with the aging facility’s ORs. The focal point of the study is the recommendation to close the ORs fully for an estimated 27-month period and spend $8.6 million to bring the rooms up to current standards. While area residents and local officials were outraged at the notion, all WLMH medical officials condemned the action, including Dr. Gary Benson, a long-time fixture who served as its medical director until his resignation over the issue. Key to their concerns was the lack of input and communication in general prior to the
Niagara West MPP Sam Oosterhoff tabled petitions with more than 18,000 signatures in the Legislature last Wednesday, Oct. 31. The signatures, gathered in a week’s time, call on the government to take action with Hamilton Health Sciences to ensure the survival of all services at WLMH. got a recommendaclosure being com- agara West MPP Sam ent story.” Oosterhoff said TuesWhen asked why a tion.

I think it is quite an appropriate question to ask when you’re presented with a facility that is 30 years past where, you know...We got our answer to that question.” For Oosterhoff and the current government, that answer is not in the best interests of the community. “The Minister of Health (Christine Elliott) has told HHS to find a solution that keeps all services at West Lincoln Memorial,” said Oosterhoff, adding that Donna Cripps, CEO of the Hamilton Niagara Haldimand Brant Local Health Integration Network also has “grave concerns” about shifting any services away from WLMH. Neither MacIsaac or Levo would commit to that, but they both did say they are hopeful the process now underway will help all understand what needs to be done and why. “We are engaging with the medical leadership at West Lincoln to deal with the issues that have been raised. We had a very productive, cordial meeting with them last week and committed to working with them to look at possible ways See WLMH, Page 3

West Lincoln Memorial Hospital Facility Upgrades ~ Questions and Answers (revised October 29) ~ For more information: www.hamiltonhealthsciences.ca/wlmh
Key messages: • Patient safety is not negotiable. • We are not closing the site and we are committed to its future. • The West Lincoln Memorial Hospital (WLMH) facility needs upgrades to meet standards to operate all surgical services safely until the site is rebuilt. • No decisions have been made on the date of the temporary move of some services from WLMH to other Hamilton Health Sciences (HHS) sites.
HHS leaders, staff and physicians, including those at the WLMH site. However, no date has been decided upon for service changes. We have to wait for government funding and approval for any work to begin.
Once the services move, they will never come back to WLMH.
The condition of the building is forcing some hard decisions. We know the temporary move will be disruptive but we cannot ignore the upkeep of the building and risk patient safety. This Is HHS planning to close WLMH? potential investment of $8.6 million for We are not planning to close the site.

hospital or moving services away?
Our planning includes: • Site infrastructure – $7-million infrastructure renewal project has been approved to upgrade electrical, pipes and air handling. We are waiting to receive funding from the provincial government for the work to proceed. • Surgical facilities – an estimated $8.6 million and 27 months are required for construction work on surgical facilities to meet standards set out by Accreditation Canada. An application for funding and approval was sent to the Ministry of Health and Long-term Care (MOHLTC) for approval last week. Construction would only begin once funding and approval are received. • Site rebuild – We continue to promote the rebuilding of WLMH with the provincial government.
Has HHS decided that obstetrics and surgical services will move to other sites in January? No we haven’t. There is still much planning to be done in collaboration with
Ninety seven per cent of hospitals in Canada are accredited through Accreditation Canada, using standards that reflect current best practice for safety and quality. We hold all HHS sites to those standards and WLMH is no exception. We must maintain a safe environment in the current facility indefinitely until we have a timeline for that rebuild to occur. To that end, our surgical facility must be fully compliant with Accreditation Canada standards and other contemporary quality of care standards that we follow across HHS.
Did HHS hide its plans for addressing infrastructure issues at WLMH? We have been open and transparent with our staff and physicians at the site. There is much planning to be done with the support of HHS leaders, staff and physicians, including those at WLMH. More meetings will take place. We will continue to engage in dialogue.
Will moving obstetrics and surgery require closure of the WLMH emergency department, because anesthesia support might be jeopardized? No. We are committed to continuing to provide emergency department services at the site.
Are you implying that the hospital is not safe by saying HHS is planning these measures to meet safety and accreditation standards? No we aren’t. Standards are always evolving and they become extremely difficult to meet in a facility built more than 70 years ago. We moved endoscopy services in May because we had been advised that spaces to store the equipment used in these procedures at the site did not meet Accreditation Canada standards. Safety standards are not optional. We must meet them to ensure the safety of care at WLMH.
Is HHS moving services without conCould HHS use the money donated sidering local options to keep them to rebuild WLMH for other purgoing at WLMH or in the community?
poses?
No, we can’t. This money is held in trust by the WLMH Foundation for the redevelopment of the hospital and can only be used for that purpose. HHS does not control this trust.
We are exploring all options that would allow us to meet the required standards for quality and safety. There is still much planning to be done with the support of HHS leaders, staff and physicians, including those from WLMH.

From Page 1 to mitigate their concerns. So we’ll be engaging in that discussion in the coming weeks. I think the hospital continues to have strong commitment to upgrade the site so we can meet the quality and standards in safe patient care,” said MacIsaac. “The architect’s report has caused a
News Now • Thursday, November 8, 2018 • Page 3 lot of consternation. For sure we are now moving through a process to make sure people understand the report, the issues that are raised in the report, and how it is that we can best move forward. Again, always bearing in mind our commitment delivering high quality, safe care. As has been the case from the out-
making process and an opportunity for input,” said MacIsaac. “We did agree, everyone agreed that we need to set a brisk pace to get to a final decision around this issue so I think we’re talking it’s probably going to be more than weeks, certainly less than a year. Ideally, I’d like to have a decision in place well before the spring.”
set, no specific timeline has been set but all involved realize a solution sooner than later is best for all. “We are working on the design of the next couple of months in terms of how we’ll arrive at a final conclusion. That proves we will definitely make sure that medical leadership at West Lincoln has a line of sight into the decision
A key part of the need for some level of speed is the uncertainty staff face. A long delay would magnify issues and some may choose to look elsewhere in hopes of finding a more stable environment. “I think that is part of the calculus for why we all agreed last week that we need to move briskly. There
are a number of factors at play here. This is a situation 30 years in the making,” said MacIsaac. “We cannot get to an ideal place, in the short run, based on where we are to day, so finding our way forward, in many respects, is about finding the least bad solution. We’re committed to doing that.”
Interest rate is often the deciding factor
When shopping for a fixed-rate mortgage, the interest rate is often the deciding factor, with no careful scrutiny of the terms and conditions of the offer. But, did you know that there are actually two interest rates attached to every mortgage contract? I refer to these two equally-important rates as “the rate going in”, and “the rate going out”. “The rate going in” is your contract mortgage rate the rate that gets the most attention and discussion. “The rate going out” is the rate used to calculate the prepayment penalty, should you break the mortgage prior to its maturity date. Two interesting facts: - a “5-year fixed-term” mortgage is the term of choice for most homebuyers and existing homeowners; - 70% of “5-year fixed-term” mortgages are broken after 3 years & 7 months for unplanned life events such as divorce, job loss, and illness. Have you noticed that most financial institutions advertise the 5-year fixed-term more than any other term? Before you sign up for what you think is a great 5-year fixed rate, find out what the “rate going out” is. Given that 70% of these mortgage contracts will be broken midway through the term, it is very profitable for the big banks and neighbourhood credit unions to sell low-rates up-front. I’ve seen homeowners charged penalties of thousands of dollars to break a mortgage because of the “rate going out”! Don’t settle for a low-rate promotion — You’ll pay for it later. I offer you expert mortgage advice, term lengths from 6 months to 10 years, and unique mortgage solutions (like amortizations up to 35 years) from over 20 mortgage providers, including the large banks and local credit unions. When you work with me, you are guaranteed that we will have the “rate going out” discussion! Talk to us. You’ll be impressed.
Thank you to all the patient who trusted and supported our pharmacy and walk-in during the last year.

Pen Players ready for curtain By Katharine Mitchell For NewsNow The brilliant playwright Arthur Miller once said, “the theatre is so endlessly fascinating because it’s so accidental.” It is no accident that Peninsula Players Community Theatre Company has been entertaining the Niagara region since 1982, and will be commencing their 37th season with the fall production of “The Long Weekend” by Norm Foster. “This play is different than the other plays because no character is particularly sincere. In every play I have been in, there have been characters that were self-absorbed, but this play is practically a Seinfeld episode.” says director Brian Munroe. The story follows two peculiar couples. Max Trueman is an analretentive lawyer married to Wynn, who is a psychologist that has no problem with taking her work home with her. Roger Nash is a cheap and neurotic
math teacher who has aspirations of becoming a writer, and his wife Abby is a shopkeeper who does not know which room in her house is the kitchen. Max and Wynn have spent months putting together their summer home and have invited their “good friends” over for the weekend to enjoy it. It is supposed to be a weekend of fun and relaxation between the couples, but it turns out to be the longest weekend of their lives. The show opens on Friday, Nov. 9 with the annual gala, which features complementary wine, cheese, desserts and coffee. Shows will continue on Nov. 10-12 and 16-18 with the two Sunday shows being matinees. All shows will take place in the Memory Hall of Trinity United Church, 100 Main St. West, Grimsby. Ticket prices are $20 for opening night. For all other performances, $17 for adults, $15 for seniors and students. To order, call 905-3096358.

CO2 detectors key to prevention Ontario’s Carbon Monoxide (CO) Awareness Week runs from Nov. 1-7 and the Grimsby Fire Department reminds residents it is their responsibilities to have working CO alarms in your home and have all fuel-burning appliances inspected annually. A recent review of the CO alarm emergency responses in last seven years has shown an alarming number of homes with faulty equipment. These alarms may not be functioning properly due to improper maintenance, or having simply lived out their manufacturers expected life cycle. In fact, 86 per cent of all CO alarm responses have been attributed to equipment malfunction or poor maintenance. “In Ontario, more than 65 per cent of injuries and deaths from CO occur in the home,” said GFD Fire Prevention Officer Scott Campbell. “We want to make sure everyone is safe from CO. Get all fuel-burning appliances inspected by a registered contractor.” Visit COSafety.ca to find a registered contractor near you. “You must have a working CO alarm adjacent to each sleeping area, if your home has a fuel-burning appliance, a fireplace or an attached garage,” said Campbell. “For added protection, install a working CO alarm on every storey of the home according to manufacturer’s instructions.” If you live in a condo or apartment building with a service room with a fuel-burning appliance, working CO alarms must be installed in the service room and adjacent to each sleeping area of condo’s or apartments above, below and beside the service room.
In a condo or apartment building that has an attached parking garage, working CO alarms must be installed adjacent to each sleeping area of
condo’s or apartments above, below and beside the garage. It is the law, failure to comply may result in enforcement.

Avro story not a straight Arrow (Editor’s Note: the following was published in this month’s ClubWest Magazine and drew such immediate and widespread interest, it was a natural to reprint to get this out to NewsNow’s readers) By Mike Williscraft hat is one of Canada’s most legendary mysteries is a vivid memory for Grimsby’s Bill Logan. The Avro Arrow - infamous for its seemingly arbitrary cancellation by then-Prime Minister John Diefenbaker in February 1959 - is still looked at as an engineering marvel. This although Diefenbaker ordered every plan, every blueprint, every complete Arrow and all materials related to testing destroyed. Simply, he ordered that every aspect of the project be shredded, burned and/or eliminated. For Bill, now 96 years old, was fulfilling a life-
W
long interest in planes and aeronautical engineering when he took a job at Avro Canada, based in Malton, Ont., at the end of WWII. Avro - with its parent company in England on its own was a mercurial Canadian success story which opened its doors in 1945 and, at its peak, employed more than 50,000 people with 15,000 of those employees working at the Malton plant and fellow subsidiary Orenda Engines. Previous to the engineering work on the Arrow, Avro had gained a top-drawer reputation with planes such as the Avro Lancaster Bomber as evidence of their efforts and expertise. With dedicated employees like Bill in their fold, success was almost guaranteed. Bill, a Niagara Falls native, adored planes from the time he was a toddler. “It was all I thought about when I was a youngster,” said Bill
Grimsby’s Bill Logan was an engineer at Avro, working on the Arrow, when the plug was pulled in 1959.

“Growing up in Niagara Falls it was nothing to hop across the river for a coffee or entertainment,” Bill recalled. As a side note Bill noted that he is likely the only living person left who would have seen the collapse of the border bridge in Niagara Falls in 1940. “It collapsed due to ice build up. I was right there,” said Bill. Bill got two years in at UofM before WWII broke out, at which time he joined the Royal Canadian Air Force. Much of his time in the RCAF was spent at the airbase in Dunnville. “Because of my stature, they wanted me to be a gunner on a bomber,” said Bill. “But I had red/green blindness, so I could not do it.” Because of his knowledge, it made sense to keep Bill involved with pilots and flying so he began his stint training air crew on how the aircrafts work - all phases. “I got them trained,
then the fellas left here for England to join the war effort,” said Bill. With the end of the war, soldiers returned home on a “first in, first out” basis. This meant Bill would be released towards the end of the process. This would have compromised his return to UofM to complete his engineering studies, so he wrote a letter asking for permission for early release so he could get to school in time for the semester start. “They granted my request, so I was one of the first soldiers to return to civilian life. The other fellas weren’t back for another six months or so,” Bill recalled. “They gave us $150 and told us we could wear our uniforms for one month after we got out. For some, those were the only clothes they had. I was a bit of a celebrity. I got invited everywhere. It was great. I told them I was See AVRO, Page 9

From Page 8 Canadian but they said that did not matter.. It was a fun time.” And part of his fun at UofM was extra-curricular activities. Bill was a champion badminton player for Big Blue. When his second stint at UofM wrapped up, he had a summer work placement and then it was time to job hunt. Post-war, it was not much of a hunt. “It was really easy to get a job. You didn’t need any experience. When I was done with school, I went to Avro to apply. I got in right away. My first job was just drawing different designs, like wings. Gradually, you worked your way through different aspects of design and eventually I was moved into electrics and hydraulics,” said Bill. For Bill, who knew what he wanted to do with his life right from
the moment he gave it a first thought was now living his dream. The first major project he worked on for Avro was the Canuck fighter. He spent about 10 years on that project. In 1957, he started working on the Arrow. For an aeronautical engineer, working on the Avro Arrow was the Super Bowl of jobs. There was nothing in the world at that time which was more dynamic, more cutting edge and more challenging than working on a jet fighter which had the world talking. The Arrow was about to make Canada a world power when it came to developing and manufactur-
ing fighter jets. “We were far ahead of everyone, especially the U.S.,” said Bill with great pride. “It was the hermetic seals on our electrics and our hydraulics which set us apart. No other plane had what we had.” The Arrow was developed to combat Soviet spy planes which were regularly invading air space over Alaska and Canada’s northwest. The Arrow had a wingspan of 50 ft and was 77 ft in length. Its loaded weight was 68,605 lbs. While there are a lot of other specs to go with those, the major feature of the jet was its See CANCEL, Page 10

Bill explained that the hermetic seals and hydraulics that had been developed were what allowed the Arrow magic to happen. During this part of his tenure, Bill said his team had a lot of meeting with U.S. representatives who were seeking to understand how the Canadians were doing what they were doing. “We had a lot of meetings with U.S. officials.

Each time they came around, my boss would say run off of a copy of that design and give it to them. That bothered me,” recalled Bill. “Why would we give them our technology. I asked a couple of times, ‘Are you sure you want to give that to them?’ I was told, ‘Why not? They are our ally’.” In keeping with much of the lore of the ill-fated Arrow, it, although sad as far as Canadian history goes, somehow fits its meteoric rise to infamy. “The day it was cancelled was like any other day. I was sitting at my
desk and an announcement came on, “As of now, the Avro Arrow has been cancelled. You are all fired. The security people will see you out of the building,” recalled Bill. “It was horrifying: thousands out of work just like that.” Bill was one of the lucky ones. He got two more years of work, shifting over to the CF100, but most were not so lucky. The end was brutal. Everything was ordered destroyed. “They came in and cut up the actual jets right in the hangar with
blow torches: brand new planes. It didn’t make an ounce of sense. All the investment was done. It was ready,” said Bill. “The fact we gave the U.S. drawing after drawing, they didn’t have to buy anything. The Canadian Air Force wanted it, but the government didn’t want to pay for it,” he said. “And aside from that, two of the key people involved just didn’t get along. Our manager at Avro and a key government representative had what you would call a personality clash. They just didn’t like each other.”

Village of Hope ready for business in new location Hundreds of residents were on hand Saturday for the launch of the Village of Hope’s relocation to the old Jordan Public School. Closed for the past five years, the school will continue to enrich the community’s health and well being as the Village of Hope opens the door to a new chapter of community programs. It’s a vision as big as the 14,000 sq. ft. of space and executive director Cheryl Keddy-Scott was bursting with enthusiasm talking about the friendship and fresh foods that will fill every square inch.
It’s in her nature to be enterprising and the new Village of Hope set to launch this Saturday, promises to become a community hub, with a pay-as-you-can bistro and café, computers and free wifi, visiting chefs leading budget-conscious cooking classes, a regulation kitchen, community gardens, breakfast and lunch programs, a thrift shop, used furniture store, toy room and the food bank stocked with healthy fresh foods. Best of all, it will be a place for community members to know that no matter their challenges, they are not alone.

Dear Editor, The Hamilton Health Sciences’ sudden new plans for West Lincoln Hospital I am sure caught a lot of people by surprise. Someone comes out with new “standards” and suddenly our local health care facility needs about nine million dollars in urgent “upgrades”. This doesn’t pass the smell test, as the key people at our hospital had no inkling of this. If HHS is determined to do these upgrades, and are not ready to build a new hospital, then I am sure that these upgrades can be done incrementally. When I first moved to Niagara, there were well-
Letter used small hospitals in Niagara-on-the-Lake, Fort Erie, Port Colborne and of course, Grimsby, plus smaller day clinics in Virgil and elsewhere. I remember as a young reporter when then-Health Minister Frank Miller raced around the province closing these facilities, choosing to fund ever-larger health care “centres”. The Liberals continued this, funding huge, expensive facilities in centres coincidentally mostly (or perhaps solely) in “Liberal” ridings such as St. Catharines. Niagara Falls and Welland.

a new Niagara Falls/southern tier facility has been ignored. This focus on these mega-facilities speaks to a flawed health care paradigm, because first you have to get there. If you’re not from St. Catharines, using the new hospital is far from convenient due to travel time, often in poor weather, and especially if you don’t have a car. Is it possible that this leads to overuse of land ambulances or the air ambulance? Certainly, a new facility in the general Niagara Falls area might help, but this isn’t too effective for communities farther south and west. What is needed are the smaller facilities such as we have in West Lincoln Memorial. These are far
more convenient for the procedures and tests that most people need, provide a convenient and efficient centre for local patients, doctors and nurses, and a primary emergencycare facility which could at least stabilize or act as a staging area before onward transportation when needed. It would also help with both attracting new doctors and nurses, and help relieve the burden on our existing physicians. You could build three of these for the cost of one moderate mega-facility. We will require larger centres of excellence, conducting research and equipped with the latest cutting-edge tools. However, smaller local facilities, offering still-quality care are sorely needed. Driving 10 or 15 minutes to your local hospital for a common or routine procedure of some sort is better than forcing patients into an hour-long (or longer) drive – each way – then pay exorbitant parking fees and facing heavy traffic and/or bad weather most times. It is long past time to rethink this continuous emphasis only on mega-facilities. Local is usually better. Tim Fletcher, Grimsby

It’s been a few years... It’s that time again, good reader. Time for my semi-annual proclamation that Remembrance Day should be a national holiday. No, not a kegger style, May 2-4 holiday weekend (although it is likely many would use the extra day to embibe in such frivolity) but a simple moment in time for all to exercise their choice of watching, listening and learning from history or taking time for the family or heading into a closed office to get ahead on work. The point is Canadians have choices because of what has happened with countless heroes who gave all so that we could have such options. All the silly things we have are all as a result of someone before us fighting to preserve our rights and way of life. That commands respect. Let’s set ourselves up for success in the future by respecting our past. M.W.
As dust settles....some head scratching Any way you come at this recent announcement by Hamilton Health Sciences, there really is no way to make sense of how they rolled it out, or why they rolled it out in the manner in which they chose to do so. There are also probably 4-5 major lines of thinking that lead you straight to a cadre of conspiracy theorists who firmly believe something dastardly is afoot. I don’t believe that. I refuse to, actually, but rest assured my ears are pricked and I am feeling every disturbance in the force...and there are many. We all need to do our best to look forward and not just sit back and hope for the best, but be proactive, forthright, the phenomenally squeaky wheel if you will and demand, loudly, “the best”. We’ve been too Canadian, too long on this hospital wait. As someone coming back to the Save Our Hospital campaign for thirds....I can tell you I can think of much better ways to spend six evenings out of seven and another 14 or 15 hours on weekends. Yesterday, a deadline day, I burned the first five hours of my day speaking to residents coming into my office to find out what’s going on, interviewing key players in the process for this week’s story, and answering a gazillion texts and emails about everything from logos and T-shirt colours to flat out putting on my Jimmy The Greek hat and laying odds on if HHS will come through for the community or not. My tendency is to lean a bit the way MPP Sam Oosterhoff is thinking. One has to believe HHS officials will remain true to their word and seek out viable options which allow them to achieve
MIKE WILLISCRAFT their quality of care standards and allow WLMH to survive. But here is the thing on that, and it is a point no HHS personnel will touch, acknowledge or consider... and that’s what bugs me: For anyone on that side of the ball to sit back and NOT confirm that transferring OR and OB services from WLMH for 27 months - as outlined in the five-page report released last month - will be the end for the hospital. Sure, they can say, and mean it, that they plan to bring back the OR and OB 27 months down the road. That would be like me filling this space telling all I am heading for Vegas to 27 months and leaving the front door of my home open. Would I be surprised everything inside (the best medical staff any small town can muster) was all looted upon my return. Heck no. In fact, any reasonable human would EXPECT that result. Following that progression, if you see that freight training coming, you must WANT that fate or you would not set up every possible scenario (like leaving a front door wide open) to allow it to happen. Who wants to maintain quality and level of service to the public but then requests of a consultant to
only provide ONE option in what is easily the most critical report on WLMH in 20 years? The HHS people are smart people, professional people. Do they think nobody in Niagara West can connect dots? Again, I don’t want to go down the rabbit hole of punching holes in this flawed process. They have rejigged and are now calling it a “planning process” so this is one of those times, as dangerous as it feels, that we have to trust that people who are being paid a whole ton of money to make big decisions are going to make the right - and only - big decision to solve this health care standards issue while maintaining services. MacIsaac and his team can repeat all they want about how this is a quality of care and patient safety matter... they could not wrap themselves any tighter in that warm and snuggly Motherhood blanket. I get the need for safety and all but I believe our local docs when they say there is no immediate issue and there has not been a report of a single issue. You could speculate against what “might” happen all day long. In a results based industry like health care, track record should mean something and WLMH has always had an excellent standing despite its age. For the poker players in the crowd, it’s time to go all in, people! A new hospital build means exactly zero if this plan to transfer services actually gets hatched. Those services won’t come back and if an HHS official claims that, that is not a point I will believe no matter how wellintentioned their convictions are.
Grimsby, Smithville need Santa Claus parade helpers The Grimsby and Smithville Santa Claus parades are quickly approaching and both are in need of volunteers to help the events run smoothly. The Smithville parade runs Saturday, Nov. 24 starting at 2 p.m. at the Smithville Arena before making its way downtown. Event chair Dave Willis said anyone who wants
to help - or those who want to enter a float for the “Christmas Songs” theme event - can call him at 905-957-7577. The Grimsby Santa Claus Parade is scheduled for Saturday, Dec. 1 and it begins at 5:15 p.m. This year’s theme is Christmas Morning, and plans are well underway. The Grimsby committee is looking for youth
volunteers to help carry banners and dress in costume. All high school students are welcome to apply, and the time can be used for volunteer service hours. The committee is also looking for adult (18 yrs+) traffic marshals. The traffic marshals are located along the parade route, and they help communicate the road closure areas.
Many of the locations are along the parade route, so you can still enjoy the parade with your family. Those willing to help out this long running community event, please contact Trevor Ruzylo at 905-945-1288 or truzylo@grimsby.ca
