104 patients have been transported on 14 chartered flights from Western Newfoundland and Labrador for cardiac catheterization procedures in St. John’s.
Government is giving updates on solutions that improve health care. To date, 104 patients have been transported on 14 chartered flights from Western Newfoundland and Labrador for cardiac catheterization procedures in St. John’s. 163 surgeries have been completed by the orthopedic team travelling from St John’s to St. Anthony and Carbonear; and 216 same-day/outpatient hip and knee replacement surgeries have been completed at St. Clare’s Mercy Hospital. The orthopedic surgery program has recently expanded to Western Newfoundland, which will also increase the number of same-day/outpatient joint replacement surgeries as well as additional inpatient surgeries. As a result of the success of the same-day fly-in/fly-out cardiac catheterization flights, known as Heart Force One, over the past year, NL Health Services has issued a request for proposals (RFP) for regular flights. The RFP is scheduled to close on January 11, 2024.
