Directors, provided a review of the changes taking place at the

b)
Francis Curwood, Oxford Towers, Ajax, advised that statements were
made that meetings were held with seniors groups and, she being a

consultation group. She questioned when the expansion will go ahead

Directors have no one to answer to but should be subject to public
scrutiny.

Yvonne Bosch, 70 Hills Road, Ajax, provided a history of the development
and growth of the Ajax Pickering Hospital. She advised that the residents
of Ajax, Pickering and Whitby want and deserve a full service hospital.

further stated that these services would not only be maintained but
enhanced and new services added if necessary. He advised that
downsizing and downgrading of medical services at APH has reduced
access to necessary health care for West Durham residents. That Health
Services Restructuring Commission's directives have been violated and
the Amalgamation Agreement has been breached. The downsizing and
downgrading must stop and services must be restored.
