Save Banff maternity services

To Alberta Health Services and to Covenant Health;

Obstetrics is an essential health service and central pillar of community. This decision [to require Banff residents to travel 30 minutes on a highway to deliver a baby in hospital] was taken without public input or consultation with those people most likely to be affected. The result of this unilateral decision will be to limit the range of choice for women and their families with regards to primary health care.
