LIST OF RECOMMENDATIONS

RECOMMENDATION 1

Veterans Affairs Canada immediately provide additional funding to ensure that the quality of long-term care provided to veterans at The Lodge at Broadmead Centre, the George Derby Centre, and other health care centres in British Columbia is not adversely affected by any shortfalls in provincial and other funding.

RECOMMENDATION 2

Veterans Affairs Canada become more involved in the control and management of the wait-list for our veterans seeking access to long‑term residential care facilities in British Columbia.

RECOMMENDATION 3

Veterans Affairs Canada undertake the renegotiation of the 1996 Transfer Agreement between the Government of Canada, the Government of the Province of British Columbia, and the George Derby Long Term Care Society and of the agreements with other B.C. centres providing long-term health care to veterans, in light of the changes made by the Government of British Columbia in its funding and residential care access policies, effective April 15, 2002.
