Dynacare labs have ruined our healthcare system
Have you noticed that since Dynacare took over from Valley Medical Lab things have gone terribly wrong?
It takes hours to get a simple blood test. Seniors waiting outside in the dark in their walkers at 7am so they can wait at least an hour (but not hours) to get blood drawn.
It’s a big problem. If you have gone to a lab recently you’ll know what I’m talking about.
I was wondering why things got so bad and thought maybe it was population increase? No, this isn’t the reason. It’s because dynacare is a private company and they aren’t paying their staff enough and they’re understaffed. They are a shitty corporation who does not care about our wait times.
What can we do?
