Council Request May Be Too Late

The regional health authority isn't saying much about city council's decision requesting the organization reverse the closure of the seniors care home on James Street. Susan Pilatzke,  a senior director with the Local Health Integration Network, says it's hard to stop something that's already underway.  She says there are only 7 patients remaining at the facility  and that it's scheduled to close at the end of the month. Pilatzke says there will be no comment on the council request until the entire board has a chance to review it.
