"WORKING???"
Helping You Plan How long do you think a customer would wait in our office to be
served??? Three hours?? Six hours?? Longer!! Nope Wrong!! Our
For Tomorrow, Today. customers would expect to be served almost immediately and if there
was any delay, they would expect to have a prompt apology and
explanation as to what was causing the delay and when they might be
served. In other words we would bend over backwards to
communicate with them and work hard to ensure that we were doing

Call for our everything possible to resolve their issue.

So how is it that an elderly person can spend 11 hours in our
emergency department and be almost totally ignored for the entire

free booklet time. When she needed to use the facilities, I had to track someone
down to provide some service. Had I not been there, how long would
she have waited for someone to simply ask how was she doing and was

It is a sad commentary on our society that I can get faster and more
caring health care for my dog than I can for a family member. Is the
problem not enough resources?? A more recent visit with another
Rod Anderson
family member took 2 ½ hours during which she received less than
10 minutes of actual attention. Knowing several other people who
were also there, I can confirm that their experience was exactly the
same.
Doing a bit of analysis, I did a count of the approximate number of
patients actually inside the ER and estimated that there were no
more than 30 patients actually inside the ER at that time. I also did a
count of staff that I could actually see at one time and counted 18
staff present. Assuming that not all staff visible were nurses and
doctors, let's say that 10 staff were actually hands on with patient

treatment and allowing for a mere 50% of there time actually working
with patients, one would expect that each patient would receive
about 10 minutes of attention each hour. Nope!! Not even close!!
It wouldn't take a genius to make a few visits to the ER and ask
patients just how they feel about the service that they are receiving.
Check and see how many people are leaving without service after
waiting hours in frustration.
This past weekend, I gave myself a nasty little cut with a grinder.
Certainly not life threatening, but as a gaping wound was definitely in
need to stitches in order to get it closed properly. My decision was
that a life time of slowly seeping blood from an unhealed wound was
far superior to the frustration of dealing with our medical system.
So I have been talking to a good friend of mine, The Jet, and for an
agreed upon number of doggy treats he is willing to see if he can get
me in to see his doctor. He assured me though that if I whined and
didn't behave myself while I was getting stitched up that I would just
have to find my own veterinarian the next time. 800

JACK KEIR PRESENTS LOCAL NB MERIT
AWARDS
Over the past four years, I have had the pleasure of
participating in many worthwhile initiatives and events. One
of the events that I find most rewarding, is the honour of
presenting the NB Merit awards to its most deserving
recipients, the volunteers. This year the awards ceremony was
held at the KBM in Morna on August 24th and many people
attended to show their support and appreciation to these well
deserving recipients. Six awards were presented this year to
volunteers who have dedicated many years towards several
worthy causes and organizations.
Eric Estabrooks was an educator for 35 years and recently
retired as Principal of River Valley Middle School. He is
currently involved with the Learning Partenership, managing
its entrepreneurial adventure program in New Brunswick.
Eric has always been committed to the well-being, the
mentoring and education of the youth in our community.
Through Midge Thompson's involvement, the Musquash
LSD has made significant improvements. This group is now
much more effective, with a broader reach and is viewed as
one of the best LSD groups in the province. Midge has
worked tirelessly for her community in support of numerous
initiatives, many of which she works side by side with her
mother.
Roberta Lee has been and continues to be a very strong
defender of her community. From her involvement with the
Crane Mountain Enhancement Inc. to the safety of the
Westfield Road she is a very determined and effective
advocate for her causes.
Brenda Graham and Paul Crilley are continuously working
together, whether it be for the KBM or with their passion for
WesTides – September 14, 2010
scouting. They have very positively contributed to the new
successes of the KBM. Their major contribution to the
community however is with Scouts Canada as they work
tirelessly to insure the continued success of this
organization.
Lyman Spear has always been considered one of the foremost
community leaders in the Lepreau area. Lyman was a key
figure in establishing the local Community group to promote
awareness and protect the public concerns and interests with
the Point Lepreau start-up. He still continues with this
function along with many others to the benefit of his
community and surrounding areas.
Flo Colwell is an energetic and determined lady who
continues to be a tremendous asset to her community. Her
involvement with the Martinon Community Center is a great
example of her leadership skills. Flo is greatly loved by the
many students who have passed through the Westfield
Elementary School for her volunteer work there as well.
Again, I would like to thank all of our community volunteers
for their time and commitment and congratulate them on an
award well deserved. Jack Keir. 706

ON OUR COVER
A WISH FOR CHELSEA BETH ALLABY
We hear stories every day that inspire us get involved; we
share this story to inspire others. Chelsea Allaby is a warm,
friendly and loving 18-year girl from Charlotte County, NB
whose father Brent hails from Nauwigewauk and whose
mother Marlene comes from Martinon. With a smile that
would light up the darkest night, this young lady disguises
the fact that she has been a Neuroblastoma Cancer Patient
since the age of seven and that she also suffers from Dravet
Syndrome - a severe form of epilepsy.
Recently the Allaby family met with volunteers from a
group called "Workers4Wishes". W4W strives to provide a
few wishes each year for children in our community that
have life threatening illnesses. Chelsea's wish is to travel
across country in an RV to visit family & friends in places
like Kingston, Toronto, Fergus and ending up in Winnipeg
for a week. There will be a few special stops along the way
like the zoo in Granby, a helicopter ride in Toronto and
possibly Santa's Village in New Hampshire - time & weather
permitting.
The W4W group is pleased to welcome the John T
McMillan Jr. Memorial Foundation and Leisure Time RV
Center on board as full wish partners to make this dream
come true. Upon hearing Chelsea's story these special
people took only a few short seconds before committing to
the cause.
Together we wish the Allaby family a safe and happy
journey; we will keep them in our prayers. We look forward
to some updates as the journey progresses and will meet
again on their return.
Chelsea's sister Kyla administers a Facebook site (search
“updates on Chelsea”) if you wish to read more on Chelsea
and her amazing attitude and incredible bravery.

Integrity. Commitment. Results.

“
It has been a privilege for me to represent you in the
New Brunswick Legislature.
In the past 4 years I have proven myself to be committed
to our riding and I have worked diligently to bring projects
to our communities that will enhance our lives and protect
our children.
We have seen great changes in our province from the
removal of using senior's assets to pay for nursing home
costs, to the large increase in rebates for our post-secondary
students and monumental changes in social development.
We all have a shared commitment to growth, to achievement,
and most importantly, to making a tremendous difference in
our community and in our province.
Together, we will continue to work towards these goals
