N.B. premier slams naming nurses in Mesheau family's lawsuit

 

Family of man who died in ER waiting room 'appalled' by premier's comments about lawsuit

Darrell Mesheau died after waiting 7 hours at Chalmers Hospital ER

After Premier Blaine Higgs slammed the family of Darrell Mesheau last weekend for naming nurses in the lawsuit over their father's death, Mesheau's son is speaking out.

"I feel that I am forced to speak up," Ryan Mesheau said in an emailed statement to CBC News.

"I became quickly appalled because of the misinformation that Premier Higgs chose to spread in his statements, seeming to use the death of my father for what appeared to be a self-serving attempt to gain political points."

Susan Mesheau, executor of the estate of her brother Darrell Mesheau, filed a notice of action against Horizon Health and two nurses who were on shift at a Fredericton emergency room the night he died. 

Darrell Mesheau, 78, sat in the waiting room of the Dr. Everett Chalmers Regional Hospital emergency room for about seven hours before he was discovered unresponsive around 4:30 a.m. on July 12, 2022.

The notice names Danielle Othen, a registered nurse who triaged Mesheau, and April Knowles, a licensed practical nurse with the task of monitoring patients.

Last Saturday, Higgs issued a statement criticizing the Mesheau family for naming individual nurses in the lawsuit and called them to reconsider.

"There was an inquiry into Mr. Mesheau's death, which highlighted important changes that needed to be made.… The inquiry did not find any instances of negligence on the part of these nurses," Higgs said in the statement. "To suggest otherwise by naming them in the lawsuit is unacceptable."

Ryan Mesheau took issue with that part of Higgs's statement, calling it untrue.

A coroner's inquest does not determine guilt. It hears evidence about the circumstances of a death and makes recommendations to prevent similar deaths in the future.

"As I'm sure the premier is aware, the inquest into my father's death did not determine that no negligence occurred," said Mesheau, adding the family had no choice but to name individuals. 

Higgs also pledged legislation, if re-elected, that "further protects health-care professionals from being named in lawsuits," he said, noting the health minister would begin consultation with union leadership.

When reached by phone Friday, Mesheau declined to be interviewed about his statement but confirmed that the family is continuing with the lawsuit as it stands.

Mesheau said he and his family sent Higgs a letter in May following the coroner's inquest.

"We asked Premier Higgs to demonstrate leadership, integrity and humanity by undertaking four reasonable and realistic requests in the hope that it would help improve the health-care system for the frontline health-care professionals and the citizens of this province," Mesheau wrote.

Among the requests in the family's letter were that Higgs make a public apology and a public commitment to implement three recommendations put forth by the inquest.

The three recommendations were that staff be equipped with hand-held electronic devices to record patient vitals; that all stakeholders to "collaborate and show ownership in the resolution of the bed-blockage issue;" and that eight recommendations stemming from an internal Horizon review following Mesheau's death be "fully implemented, funded and staffed."

Mesheau also asked that a plaque be installed in the waiting room stating Horizon Health's mandate and that Higgs consider updating the New Brunswick Fatal Accidents Act.

Mesheau said Higgs did respond to the family's letter, but the response was "vacuous" and didn't address the concerns the family had put forth.

"Premier Higgs must understand that the best way to garner political gain from this situation is to earn it," Mesheau said. "And there is an opportunity now to do so.

"Everyone in New Brunswick needs him to turn his focus to the deep, real and measurable positive actions that will improve New Brunswick's health-care system — those things that will truly benefit our frontline health-care professionals and our citizens."

N.B. premier slams naming nurses in Mesheau family's lawsuit

Darrell Mesheau, 78, was found unresponsive after 7 hours waiting for emergency care in Fredericton ER

New Brunswick Premier Blaine Higgs is urging the family of a man who died in Fredericton's emergency room to reconsider naming individual nurses in their lawsuit. 

Susan Mesheau of Fredericton, executor of the estate of her brother Darrell Mesheau, filed a notice of action against Horizon Health Network and two nurses on shift when he died.

Darrell Mesheau, 78, sat in the waiting room of the Dr. Everett Chalmers Regional Hospital emergency room for about seven hours before he was discovered unresponsive around 4:30 a.m. on July 12, 2022.

The notice names Danielle Othen, a registered nurse who triaged Mesheau, and April Knowles, a licensed practical nurse tasked with monitoring patients. 

In a statement Saturday, Higgs called on the family to reconsider the strategy. 

"The death of Darrell Mesheau was a tragedy," Higgs said. "The loss of a loved one is always difficult, and even years later, I want to extend my heartfelt condolences to the family of Mr. Mesheau.

"There was an inquiry into Mr. Mesheau's death, which highlighted important changes that needed to be made.... The inquiry did not find any instances of negligence on the part of these nurses. To suggest otherwise by naming them in the lawsuit is unacceptable."

Higgs noted the province pays 100 per cent of legal fees for nurses employed by the Regional Health Authorities, as well as any judgment against them. 

"I believe that front-line health-care providers – who serve patients in good faith and to the best of their abilities – should not have extra stress heaped upon them by being named in lawsuits," the statement said. 

"Even if costs are covered, it is still an attack on a nurse's reputation, and is personally stressful."

He also pledged legislation, if re-elected, that "further protects health-care professionals from being named in lawsuits," noting an instruction to the health minister to begin consultation with union leadership.

When reached Saturday, Susan Mesheau said the family had no further comment at this time.

The New Brunswick Nurses Union and Horizon Health Network declined to comment on the matter on Friday.

Family of man who died waiting for care at Fredericton ER sues Horizon, 2 nurses

Darrell Mesheau, 78, died at the Dr. Everett Chalmers Regional Hospital on July 12, 2022

The family of a man who died waiting for care at the Fredericton hospital's emergency department two years ago is suing health-care providers for negligence over his death, alleging "reckless and outrageous acts and omissions" in his care and treatment.

Susan Mesheau of Fredericton, executor of the estate of her brother Darrell Mesheau, has filed a notice of action against Horizon Health Network and two nurses.

Darrell Mesheau, 78, spent about seven hours in the waiting room of the Dr. Everett Chalmers Regional Hospital ER before he was discovered slumped and motionless in a wheelchair by a licensed practical nurse around 4:30 a.m. on July 12, 2022.

His death sparked outrage across the province and prompted a major shakeup of New Brunswick's health-care leadership, including the firing of Horizon's president and CEO, replacement of the health minister and removal of the Horizon and Vitalité boards.

It also led to a coroner's inquest earlier this year, which ended with three jury recommendations aimed at improving ER services and preventing deaths under similar circumstances.

The family's lawsuit names as defendants Regional Health Authority B, doing business under the name of Horizon, which is "legally responsible for the acts and omissions of its nursing staff," as well as Danielle Othen and April Knowles.

Othen, a registered nurse, "was responsible for triaging patients" in the Chalmers ER waiting room July 11-12, 2022, based on the Canadian Emergency Department Triage and Acuity Scale, according to the statement of claim, filed with the Court of King's Bench in Fredericton.

Knowles, a licensed practical nurse, "had a duty of care to monitor and care for patients in accordance with their triage level" July 11-12, the court documents state. "As part of her duties, [she] had to check and monitor patient vitals," such as heartbeat, breathing rate, temperature and blood pressure.

Seek punitive, special damages

The Mesheau family, including his four siblings, two children, and granddaughter, contends the defendants failed to provide him with "proper medical care and attention.

"This included, but was not limited to, the defendants not providing [Canadian Emergency Department Triage and Acuity Scale] Level 3 medical care, which prescribes a patient vitals check and reassessment every 30 minutes."

They further allege the defendants' "acts and omissions caused or contributed to" Mesheau's death, and that their actions "fell well below the standard of care."

None of the allegations have been proven in court.

The family is seeking unspecified punitive and/or exemplary damages, special damages for financial losses, and damages for "loss of guidance, companionship, and/or support." In addition, they are seeking costs, interest and any other relief the court deems just.

Susan Mesheau declined an interview.

"The family doesn't have anything to add at this time," she said in an email Friday morning.

No statements of defence have been filed yet, according to court staff.

Horizon and the New Brunswick Nurses Union both declined to comment.

Only assessed twice during 7-hour wait

Darrell Mesheau, a former diplomat, arrived at the hospital by ambulance on July 11, around 9:33 p.m., after he called 911, and was placed in a wheelchair in the ER waiting room.

According to the documents, he was "only examined and/or assessed twice by nursing staff with his vitals being taken the same number of times" during the roughly seven hours he waited — although the coroner's inquest heard testimony about a third check.

On July 11, around 10:44 p.m., Othen triaged him as being a Level 3, which is considered urgent, according to the Canadian Emergency Department Triage and Acuity Scale, which ranges from Level 1, the most serious, to Level 5.

She did not note any of Mesheau's medical history, which included a heart attack and quadruple bypass, diabetes, and high blood pressure.

The second time was around 2:03 a.m. the next day, when Knowles took his vitals, according to the documents — although Knowles told the inquest she also took his vitals around 11:15 p.m. and they were within normal limits.

"No medical or nursing staff working at the DECH on July 12, 2022, interacted with Darrell Mesheau from the time his vitals were last taken at or around 2:03 a.m. and the time that he was found unresponsivecool to touch, and/or deceased by nursing staff in the waiting room at or around 4:28 a.m." the documents state.

A code blue was called, but attempts to resuscitate Mesheau were unsuccessful and he was pronounced dead around 4:44 a.m. A pathologist later determined he died from heart failure.

Horizon failed to provide 'competent personnel, adequate facilities'

Mesheau's death was "caused or contributed to by the negligence" of Horizon, according to the family.

They allege that the regional health authority failed to, among other things, provide Mesheau with "competent personnel, adequate facilities and equipment" and "proper emergency room care."

Othen is accused of causing or contributing to Mesheau's death by allegedly failing to inquire about and document his medical history, failing to properly investigate his symptoms, and failing to have him examined by a doctor.

She also failed to properly carry out the responsibilities of a registered nurse in accordance with Chalmers protocols and guidelines and the standard of care required of a registered nurse at the time, the family contends.

Knowles is accused of causing or contributing to Mesheau's death by allegedly failing to properly record his presenting signs and symptoms, failing to properly investigate his symptoms, failing to properly monitor and care for him, and failing to have him examined by a doctor.

The family alleges she also deviated from the accepted standard of care regarding Level 3 monitoring, and failed to properly carry out the responsibilities of a licensed practical nurse in accordance with Chalmers protocols and guidelines and the standard of care required of a licensed practical nurse at the time.

Knowles told inquest she volunteered to help in ER

During the two-day coroner's inquest, Othen testified she worked a 12-hour shift alone, triaging ER patients the day Mesheau died because they were short-staffed. "We didn't have all of the staff that we should have had to work properly," she testified.

She was unable to monitor the vital signs of patients she had already triaged, she said, because she was too busy triaging new patients coming in.

There were 52 patients in the ER between 7 p.m. on July 11 and 5 a.m. on July 12, and 14 of them were Level 2s, or emergent, the inquest heard.

Knowles testified that she was assigned to work on the psychiatric side of the waiting room the day Mesheau died, but volunteered to help out in the ER because they were short-staffed.

Although she said there was no real change in his vitals between 11:15 p.m. and 2:03 a.m., she was concerned because he was so pale, so she bumped his chart ahead of three other patients.

Around 4:30 a.m., another licensed practical nurse told Knowles that Mesheau "didn't look so good," so she went to take his vitals again and found him unresponsive, the inquest heard.

He was already cool to the touch, according to ER Dr. Shawn Tiller, meaning he hadn't had any circulation in "quite a while."

Knowles testified staff know they're "supposed to do an hourly check," but stressed she had other patients and other duties.

"It means we are human, we are one human … doing six or seven jobs," she said.

Horizon Health is a private company whose income is primarily our tax dollars.

This is yet another example where outsourcing health care costs taxpayer more in return for less service and less accountability... and longer wait times.

Every time a health care service is outsourced, service declines and wait times increase... and tax payers pay more.

Actually Horizon Health is not a private corporation. It is a regional health authority established under NB’s Regional Health Authorities Act, for which the Minister of Health has responsibility. Section 18 of the Act states that a regional health authority “is established to operate exclusively as a body corporate without share capital, and no part of the income or property of a regional health authority shall be paid to, or otherwise be made available for, the personal benefit of any director of the authority.” Here is a link to the Act: https://laws.gnb.ca/en/document/cs/2011,%20c.217?_gl=1*lyv23n*_ga*MTM2MjgwNDUzNy4xNzI0NDQxOTcx*_ga_F531P4D0XX*MTcyNDQ0MTk3MC4xLjEuMTcyNDQ0Mjk4NS4wLjAuMA ..

This was a SYSTEM failure, not negligent nurses. This situation is a result of being severely short staffed. It's a shame that this gentleman did not get the care he deserved and I feel for the family members, however, suing nurses is a dangerous precedent. Why would anyone want to be a nurse right now??

Taxes ,as asked, are paid to provinces to fund healthcare programs and the expectation is that services paid for will be provided. When that fails to happen, or it appears it has, people have the right to sue for damages and depending on what is found may win or lose. I can see tis happening more and more in future as issues are not addressed

People sue when they believe they have been wronged and suffered damages . When enough sue successfully behaviors from service providers do change as it is cheaper to provide the service than pay the losses , or they can not get insurance, although that may not apply to Govts, who pass the loss on to taxpayers, who in essence become the insurers when they self insure

If the evidence you have is in your favour the defending law firm is immaterial and lawyers will take the case based on a contingency fee if they win, so no cost to you . But such claims are often settled out of court and not heard of . If you are asked to pay a lawyer to take a case not a good indicator of success in court. More like they employ many very high powered law firms to protect them.

I did a quick search and you are right on the money re court cases . CBC article 2019 stated "

" But when patients like Wiseman try to sue their doctor, a CBC investigation shows the rate of success is very low.

CBC News obtained every annual report filed by the Canadian Medical Protective Association, which provides liability coverage and legal support to physicians, dating back to 1901.

An analysis of the past 40 years shows that as the number of doctors increased, the rate of patients suing has dropped. For the cases that do make their way to court, the number of patients who have won has also gone down.

In the late 1970s, roughly one in three cases that went to trial was decided in favour of the patient. In the past five years, that figure has dipped closer to one in five.

No coroner inquests into 2 other ER waiting room deaths in 2022, N.B. says

2 men died waiting for care at the Moncton Hospital and Edmundston hospital emergency departments

Coroner inquests will not be held into two other emergency department waiting room deaths that occurred in New Brunswick in 2022, shortly after Fredericton ER waiting room death of Darrell Mesheau in July of that year, for whom an inquest was held last week.

A man died at the Moncton Hospital's ER on Nov. 22, after he waited some six hours to see a doctor or nurse. The former kidney transplant patient, a husband and father of five, allegedly told staff numerous times he believed he was dying.

Fifteen days later, on Dec. 7, a man in his 70s died in the waiting room of the Edmundston Regional Hospital's ER.

"Coroner Services has investigated the two deaths and determined there will be no inquests," Department of Justice and Public Safety spokesperson Allan Dearing told CBC News Monday.

"As part of the process to determine if an inquest will be conducted, outside of what's required by legislation, Coroner Services reviews past and/or scheduled inquests to determine if recommendations have been made to prevent deaths under similar circumstances in the future," he said in an emailed statement.

Dearing did not immediately respond to a request to elaborate.

Coroner Services is mandated to review all suspicious or questionable deaths in the province and to conduct inquests when deemed necessary "in the public interest."

An inquest helps satisfy a community that a death has not been "overlooked, concealed, or ignored," deputy chief coroner Emily Caissy told the Mesheau inquest.

Moncton ER was in 'critical overcapacity state'

The death of the Moncton ER patient, identified by members of the Moncton Muslim Association by only the initials MS, prompted a rally outside the hospital on Nov. 26.

He had undergone a medical procedure a few days earlier and was instructed to return to the ER immediately if he had back or chest pain, according to the association. He went to the ER on Nov. 21 with severe back and chest pain and was directed to the waiting room around 10 p.m. 

By 3:30 a.m., MS was dead.

The ER was "in a critical overcapacity state" at the time, Horizon Health Network's clinical lead of emergency services, Dr. Serge Melanson, previously told CBC.

The patient was "triaged appropriately as an emergency priority," and was placed in the main waiting room "until a suitable exam space was available," Melanson said.

Some tests were conducted and he was being monitored, but his "condition quickly deteriorated."

As of February 2024, Horizon patients in the Moncton region, Zone 1, face the longest ER waits — an average of 328 minutes, or about 5½  hours, the performance dashboard shows. No data for individual hospitals is provided.

Edmundston ER had high traffic, long waits

In the Edmundston case, the ER had a "high level of traffic and long wait times" at the time of the patient's death, but "no cause-and-effect relationship" had been established, Vitalité Health Network has said.

The patient was triaged, monitored and cared for according to established protocols, Dr. France Desrosiers, president and chief executive officer, said in a statement at the time.

His condition was deemed stable during triage, she said.

Witness Suzanne Ducas, who was at the ER with her daughter, who had an injured foot, said the man had been in the waiting room for several hours when someone shouted, "The gentleman is not well."

Then a woman shouted, "code blue," and staff tried to resuscitate the man, she said.

"It is catastrophic what is happening in our [ERs]," Ducas said, in French, at the time.

3 recommendations from Mesheau inquest 

Darrell Mesheau, 78, died on July 12, 2022, after he waited seven hours to see a doctor at the Dr. Everett Chalmers Regional Hospital's ER, a coroner's inquest heard last week.

Mesheau arrived at the ER by ambulance on July 11, around 9:30 p.m., saying he felt weak and short of breath on exertion.

He was triaged as a Level 3 around 10:45 p.m. and directed to the waiting area, where he was discovered unresponsive the next morning around 4:30 a.m., and was already cool to the touch.

His death sparked outrage across the province and prompted a major shakeup of New Brunswick's health-care leadership.

The two-day inquest heard evidence from 10 witnesses and ended with three recommendations from the jury:

  • Health agencies and government departments "collaborate and show ownership" to resolve the "bed-blockage issue." This refers to when ER patients who have been admitted to hospital have to remain in ER beds because no beds on other units are available, largely because of the number of people waiting in hospital for a long-term care placement, such as a nursing home.
  • Eight recommendations that stemmed from an internal Horizon review following Mesheau's death, such as having dedicated staff to monitor patients in the waiting room, should also be "fully implemented, funded and staffed."
  • Staff should be equipped with hand-held electronic devices to record patient vitals.

Justice must not only be done, it must appear to be done.

This remains a sad state of affairs IMO. The inquest on Mr. Mesheau included an ER doctors commenting that the exact same thing was occurring as recently as this past week. I thought Dr. Higgs was going to fix this. Clearly there are things remaining to fix. IMO

Sounds like the two other people that died weren't as important to Higgs as Mesheau. Sorry, but that's what the optics look like.

Impatient Blaine Higgs drops health minister, Horizon CEO

Bruce Fitch becomes health minister, Dorothy Shephard moves to Social Development

Death in N.B ER waiting room highlights health-care crisis, premier says

New Brunswick Premier Blaine Higgs fired the province’s health minister and the CEO of a major health network after a man died in an ER waiting room, which he says highlights a wider health-care crisis in Canada.

 Premier Blaine Higgs dropped his health minister Friday and fired the CEO of one of two New Brunswick health networks after worsening news on the health-care front that included a "traumatizing" death in an emergency department's waiting room.

Bruce Fitch is now health minister, switching places with Dorothy Shephard, who moves from Health to Social Development, Higgs announced, during a Friday afternoon news conference.

Higgs also announced Horizon Health Network CEO John Dornan was fired from his role, and replaced on an interim basis by Margaret Melanson, the network's vice-president clinical services.

In addition, Higgs said he revoked the boards of both Horizon and Vitalité health networks and installed in their place a trustee for each.

WATCH | 'It starts at the top:' Higgs details changes to health-care leadership

Higgs says he was ‘appalled’ to hear of death in ER waiting room

The premier announced Friday he was firing the CEO of Horizon and replacing his health minister.

"We have a plan," Higgs said. "It needs to be implemented. The situation we're in today is the result of many, many years of successive governments refusing to deal with urgent situations."

The shakeup of New Brunswick's health-care leadership comes after a patient died in the waiting room of the Dr. Everett Chalmers Regional Hospital's emergency department early Tuesday morning while waiting for care.

Witness John Staples said the man, a senior, had been waiting alone in a wheelchair, in visible discomfort for hours when he appeared to fall asleep. It was only during a routine check of people in the waiting room that a hospital employee realized the man had stopped breathing, he said.

Investigation ordered into death

Higgs said he was "appalled" when he heard a patient died while waiting to be seen in an emergency department.

He said he's asked Horizon Health Network to undertake an investigation into what happened, and that if he's not satisfied with the results, will ask for an external review.

"I have no doubt that every New Brunswicker is saddened and concerned by this story. We all want to know that if we go to the hospital we will receive help we need."

Answering questions from reporters, Higgs said his hope is the investigation uncovers whether any standards for care at the hospital were not being met when the patient died in the waiting room.

However, he was quick to note he doesn't believe fault lies with frontline health-care workers.

"I don't believe this has anything to do with — and I'm just stating an opinion here — anything to do with the nurses on shift or the people on shift.

"I believe it's a management issue. I believe there's no co-ordination of activity and that's what I'm trying to drive home here. If we don't get better management results in our hospitals, we won't get better health care."

Switching ministers

Higgs praised Shephard's work during the pandemic, and for her role in putting forward a new health-care plan for the province.

However, he said, Fitch would take a "fresh look" at how the department measures performance and where the shortcomings lie in health care.

Dorothy Shephard was shuffled from being minister of health to minister of social development, while Bruce Fitch was moved from social development to the role of health minister. (CBC)

"In the case of Bruce joining, sometimes a change is, some may say, better than a rest," Higgs said.

"Bruce is a seasoned individual within the government … he'll work with people anywhere, as Dorothy was, but bringing in a fresh look at, OK, how do we measure performance? How do we deliver on results? Where have we not provided and followed through on commitments made and what were the root causes of that?"

Revoking health authority boards

In place of the boards of directors for the two health authorities, Higgs said his government has appointed trustees Suzanne Johnston and Gerald Richard for Horizon and Vitalité, respectively.

"We are fortunate to have two outstanding and experienced individuals to come out of retirement to help guide us through these challenging times.

The boards of the health networks include members elected by the public and members appointed by government.

Higgs said the two boards were revoked to make quicker changes at the two health authorities.

"We're taking a crisis management approach here to allow decisions to be made, to allow direct consultation with appropriate people and get on with it.

"So we're removing this situation of a bureaucratic stalemate … and this isn't intended to be permanent but this is intended to get results. And right now I need to see results, and I want to remove the barriers and roadblocks for our health professionals to achieve them."

Higgs said he didn't have a timeline for when he expects results from the two trustees and was vague on what their targets were.

"There's going to be some targets we'll be setting out there that we want to achieve first. So I can't put a timeline on it but I do want to be clear on what the outcomes need to be."

'Major step backwards,' says ousted Horizon chair

Higgs's announcement was met with swift criticism from Jeff McAloon, the Horizon board chair until Friday. 

"I am disappointed and disheartened by Premier Higgs's unilateral decision to remove Dr. John Dornan as CEO of Horizon Health Network," McAloon said in an email statement.

"I believe in Dr. Dornan's experience and ability to affect real and positive change in the provincial health system."

During the news conference, Higgs sidestepped a question about what it was Dornan failed to do in his role as CEO.

"I think what I'm demonstrating here is a need to get a groundswell in relation to frontline workers in the case of Margaret Melanson and her role in clinical services and you know, how we can direct that in the hospitals," he said.

"I think in every hospital there needs to be a manager of clinical services that is really that gatekeeper of who is coming in? Who is going out? What's the time in? How quickly are we managing that? And we need to get on the ground with that.

McAloon characterized Higgs's move as a centralization of health-care control.

"To me, and to the partially elected, local board I led, today's announcement is a major step backward," he said. 

"It represents the loss of community ownership and engagement and clinical, leadership expertise.

"Centralizing control within the Premier's Office is not the answer. Politics is what got us here and is not the solution."

McAloon said he had not heard from Higgs and only learned of his decision moments before the news conference began.

"I join with all New Brunswickers in their feelings of shock and want nothing more than to see our system stabilized."

Johanne Lise Landry, spokesperson for Vitalité Health Network, said in an email that the health network did not receive any correspondence about its board being revoked.

There was also reaction from the medical community itself.

"Firing Dr. John Dornan would have to rank as one of the ill-advised, mindless and ill-considered decisions I have ever heard," tweeted cardiologist Dr. Robert Teskey. 

Opposition reaction

Interim Liberal Leader Roger Melanson wondered why it's taking so long for Higgs to do something about problems in the health–care system.

He said the premier has been in office for four years, and he needs to explain to New Brunswickers what his new plan is and why he thinks it will work.

But Melanson is concerned that attracting new doctors won't be high on the agenda for the province.

"We need health-care workers to be able to deliver these services, and they still have not even mentioned that today in this press conference," said Melanson.

Green Party health critic Megan Mitton said successive governments of Liberal and PC stripes have contributed to the state of the province's health-care system.

She's concerned about the abandonment of partially elected health boards, a move she said goes against democracy.

"We should not be seeing more centralization of our health-care system," said Mitton. "We should be going in the other direction and having more decision-making and power and resources at the local level."

Melanson said he would like to see the legislature recalled to deal with this issue, something Mitton said she would support.

Premier Blaine Higgs said in a statement Saturday that the family of Darrell Mesheau should not be suing individual nurses and that he would introduce legislation to protect nurses in cases like this.

When reached Saturday, Susan Mesheau said the family had no further comment at this time.

The New Brunswick Nurses Union and Horizon Health Network declined to comment on the matter on Friday.

What a difference a few months can make. Here is a link to the Horizon Board of Directors welcome message to newly appointed CEO Dr. John Dornan, which mentions his breadth of experience and how he has already started to tackle the problems in the health care system. It's dated March 4, 2022. Now both he and the Board of Directors are gone. Thanks Blaine.

What generally happens to the top position in an organization when results go poorly and you get bad press day after day after day. At some time they get fired, let go. Dornan was the top of Horizon. Fairly standard action then they are gone. Credentials are helpful to get in the door. Actions keep you inside the door. The sad reality, politics don't work that way, do a great job, horrible job, or a middle of the road job. You are there until the next election and there is not much anyone can do about it.

So Dr Dornan didn't fix all the issues in three month but Higgs has had 4 years. Perhaps he's the one who should have resigned,

Despite the pressures of the pandemic, underfunding, understaffing, erratic "leadership" by the provincial government, the people who make up NB's health care system (and those in the other provinces) are working extremely hard in caring for the population, usually successfully. Of course there are problems. How could there not be given the circumstances in which they are trying to deliver care? As for the very sad episode that has triggered these events, it could have happened anywhere, and does happen everywhere. It's only because it became headline news that Higgs reacted in this histrionic way.

Reply to Anna Barnes
Perhaps, that is the issue. We have no way of knowing. Lots of supposition, but no way to go back in time and see.
 
But I am curious, are there a set of accomplishments that they identified and then implemented. Or was it inertia as described in the article

Isn't Higgs his boss, and therefore ultimately responsible for the mess?

Thus his rush to cast the blame elsewhere. Even the Minister was praised for her service. No one in the government was unceremoniously dumped as were the two boards and the brand new CEO of Horizon. (How could it be his fault? He just got here.)

 "Referring complaints to police

 Schollenberg said the college involved the police recently, after
 suspending Bhargava.

 "It became apparent that there may be more to this," he said.

 He said the college asked some of the 18 complainants if they were
 interested in speaking to the police and passed on their information
 to the Fredericton Police Force if they said yes.

     Fredericton psychiatrist suspended by College of Physicians and Surgeons

 Alycia Bartlette, spokesperson for the Fredericton Police Force, would

 "In general, we would not confirm whether a specific individual was
 the subject of a police investigation until such time as charges are
 laid in court, or there are operational reasons otherwise," she said

THis came out of nowhere on media but its not 'new', on 'ratemydoctor'
these criticisms have been there for some time.


Josanne Landry
Mike Archibald - Unfortunately the College can't act on online ratings
until a verified patient contacts them with an official complaint.


Mike Archibald
I suspect it would probably take more than one 'official complaint'.
But I was more referring to CBC and other media that can certainly
look at online sources like that for story ideas.

Jeff McAloon

Board Chair
Chair - Executive Committee

Currently working as an executive in the renewable energy sector, Jeff has held leadership roles in the for-profit and not-for-profit sectors and remains heavily involved in his community.

During his eight-year term as the President & CEO of the Saint John Regional Hospital Foundation, Jeff was responsible for leading fundraising initiatives that resulted in over $75 million raised for projects advancing health care in New Brunswick.

He is a graduate of Mount Allison University and Ryerson University.

Jeff has extensive experience as a Board Director, having served as Vice Chair of the Saint John Police Commission, Chair of the Saint John Parking and Transit Commission, Vice Chair of the Imperial Theatre, Chair of Touchstone Academy and the inaugural Chair of Connection Dance Works. It is through his work and volunteer experience that Jeff has developed a strong penchant for strategic planning, governance and team building.

Jeff McAloon Resigning As CEO Of Saint John Regional Hospital Foundation

SAINT JOHN – The CEO of the Saint John Regional Hospital Foundation is moving on to the next chapter of his career.

Foundation officials announced Wednesday that Jeff McAloon is leaving the role effective July 1.

McAloon said after eight years as the foundation’s president and CEO, he feels now is the time for new leadership.

“I’m a believer that change in leadership is a really important thing, but the timing of that change is also critical,” McAloon said in a phone interview.

“The fact that we have finished one campaign, we have not launched another large campaign yet, that to me is the perfect time for leadership transition.”

During his tenure, McAloon has led the $12-million capital campaign for the Clinic 1 expansion project, which reached its fundraising goal in late March.

The expansion will increase the square footage of the clinic from 7,000 to 14,700 square feet, improving accessibility, privacy and patient comfort and care.

Clinic 1 serves more than 40,000 patients from across Atlantic Canada every year — a number that is expected to reach 46,000 in the next five years.

McAloon said there are “so many” highlights from his time with the foundation, but the biggest is the generosity he has witnessed from Saint Johners and New Brunswickers.

“I’ve always known that Saint John and New Brunswickers are incredibly generous, but I’ve got to experience first-hand,” he said. “The hundreds and hundreds of people that I’ve met who’ve shared their stories, who’ve shared their gifts of either encouragement or donations, it’s incredible.”

McAloon said he will be moving into an entrepreneurial role in the private sector, with more details to come in the near future.

In the meantime, an interim special committee of active board members, including chair Jamie Gallagher and vice-chair Derek Dobson, will act as transitional support for the foundation over the coming months.

The special committee will bring in an external recruitment firm and launch a comprehensive national search for McAloon’s replacement this month.

“We’re in a perfect position to do a really effective and smooth leadership transition,” said McAloon.

Gallagher thanked McAloon on behalf of the board of directors for his dedication and passion for the foundation.

“I have greatly enjoyed working with him, and I know my fellow Board members, management and staff have shared that experience,” Gallagher wrote in a news release. “We will miss Jeff, but he leaves the Foundation in a strong position for the future.”
